    Today I finished binding a quilt that my Mom Appliqued, I put together and bound and Charlene Blain quilted. I took a picture of her today before she went home after spending a couple of days with me, to take care of a couple of Dr's appointments, dentist and pain management. She really is a trooper, and finished this quilt a couple of years ago. She gave me three to finish for her, and this is the first one. I ran out of binding material for the second one, and had to order it I sure hope they get it in. Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoy. It isn't perfect, I'm sure you'll find the mistakes in it.

    What a darling quilt. Your mom looks so pleased with your work, esp. in the second photo. Good work!

    I didn't see any mistakes. Both your mom and the quilt are very pretty.
