I think your quilt is one of the most beautifully done grandmothers flower garden quilts I've ever seen -- your mom is going to LOVE it! How many hours spent on the long arm machine to do the quilting? It's fabulous!

Thank you for the kind comments.

I quilted it in 3 days, on my industrial machine. The flower design is a lot of fun, but the pebbling takes a lot of time and it is so boring!

Your quilting just made the quilt pop! It is absolutely beautiful. What a happy bonding time you had with your sisters while doing this for your mother. A family affair. Congratulations! I know this will seem like blasphemy for me to say, but Grandmothers Flower Garden is not one of my favorite designs......HOWEVER the way you quilted yours just blows me away with its' beauty and so now I can say there is one Grandmothers Flower Garden I like.......YOURS!!!!!!!

Your quilt is gorgeous. If your Mother is like me the quilt won't be too heavy. I just love, love it.
