I see you are from Louisiana. I'm so glad this quilt (and you?!) were not damaged in the horrific flooding your area has endured. Thanks for sharing.

It is cute! It's great that you could save it and make it a beautiful quilt for your sister.

I actually quilted on this in tears. Could not get mom out of her street. The river is between our homes, all I could do was wait. She lost all,and has moved in with us.

I totally agree. Your cousin is going to love it and now she will be able to enjoy it finished. You did a great job.

The fabric colors and pattern are so striking and pretty that I don't think that the unmatched seams matter much. What a joy for your cousin!

The quilting is perfect with the quilt.
I am so sorry to hear of your mother's loss and all the adjustments your family, including your mother, will need to make.

It reminded me immediately of propellers and I wonder if WWI or WWII was inspiration for it. Just a thought.
