She is now 86 and she has made more than 15 quilts in the past four years. She chose the fabrics for each one. Her routine is to go to her sewing room each morning for three hours and look at her accomplishments. Be inspired and enjoy!

Your mother I hope has entered some of these in a contest. Her work and color choices and matches
are perfect. She is one talented lady. Cudos' to her.
