    Made for Mom for Mother's Day. Even made her cry a little.
    I could critique it all night but it was a leaning process and she loves it so that's all that matters. :)
    Mom enjoys watching the birds in the backyard hence the center fabric.

    sorry pics are so small don't' know what the deal is with that!

    Your quillow is soooo pretty. Isn't that sweet that your Mom was so touched by your gift that she got teary eyed. Makes it all worthwhile when your efforts are so appreciated. I really like your fabrics and the pieced border really looks great. You are a good daughter. Your Mom must have raised you right. :-D

    I have 3 grown children and when it comes to gift giving they each try to outdo the other and see who could make me, mom, cry. They always get to me in one way or another. Sounds like your mom loved it and will cherish it. Great job !!!
