This was made for my 2nd cousin's HS graduation. Her mom passed away in a car accident when she was 4 or 5. She was always saying, "It doesn't get any better than this!" In fact, that is what is inscribed on her memorial.

What a nice thing for you to do.

Does she remember her Mom saying that?
No doubt has heard many of you over the years reminisce about it.

Best wishes to her as she continues on towards more success in her life!

Beautiful -- and it will bring on some tears, I suspect -- but in a good way.

Even though I only lost my Mom in 1995, when I was 40+, I still love to recall Millieisms.

First of all....what a great quilt. And such a wonderful idea to work in her moms catch phrase. Great idea. I'm sure she will love it.

You have captured so much in this quilt- it tells a story all by itself. What a treasured gift it will be!

Has anyone ever done a D9P in Batik? I have some batik fabric and wanted to see what it would look like to do the D9P. Possibly for a baby Quilt..?
