My Mom passed a way recently. She was 93 and had a great life with my Dad. She loved people and loved to travel. But, best of all she loved my sister and I with all her heart, and we always knew it. I didn't think a plain picture frame would honor her the way I thought she should be honored, so I made this 20x20 wallhanging for my sister (she is not a quilter) and myself. I will hang mine in my quilting room so she can watch over me doing what I love to do.
I love you Mom.

Sorry for your loss. Your tribute to her is BEAUTIFUL & she is a beautiful lady. I can see she is filled w/love, & has passed that on to you.

How special to put in your quilting room as a reminder every day of her love for you.

Have a blessed week end & may all your quilts be filled w/love.

I so sorry for your loss. I know you will miss your mom terribly.
That is a wonderful way to memorialize your mom. Since your sister doesn't quilt, I'm sure it is even more special to her.
Great job.
