Wonderful work, love all details and colors.

the quilt is a marvel, and so is your mom! she is beautiful, and the quilt pales in comparison. what a wonderful legacy you share.

I absolutely love seeingolder quilters doing bright outrageous patterns. I believe she has lots of fire in her body & love that she is still quilting. Give her a hug for me!

OMG, God bless her. She does a terrific job!

Your Mom has a great eye for colors. Great quilt.

Oh my! She sure owes you a lot for getting her started on pp. Love the quilt, so alive.

well well i see were she gets her eye for colors she has a verey pretty smile she lights up the room and her quilt is beautiful

We are never too old to learn. Great looking mom and quilt. I learned to PP in my late seventies and it opened up a new world for me. Keeps our minds sharp.

WOW stunning. Love the colors. What a great job. Thanks for sharing. Way to go MOM!!

I commented on your other thread and it's nice to see a picture of your Mom. She looks quite pleased with herself holding her quilt and she should be. The two of you are going to make so many wonderful memories quilting together. Have fun!!! :)

Your Mom is beautiful and the quilt isn't bad either. Don't suppose you share your Mom or that she would consider adoption? LOL I have much to learn and I have a feeling Your Mom has much to teach. Lovely picture, thank you for sharing.

This is WONDERFUL, keep at it old girl, pattern reminds me of fire ,superb.

Dazzling, bold, lovely quilt!! This is not a "typical" quilt a "typical 86 yr old." would make! So she is not typical, but UNIQUE! Please tell her we all love this quilt. What is the pattern?

Als I can say is WOW.

Oh wow! Both are beautiful!

What a sweet looking woman! I hope I look that good at 86. Her quilt is amazing!! love it!

WOW that quilt is phenominal! Tell Mom she can be very proud of it!

Both are beautiful & if your Mom is as colorful as the quilt ... watch out! :-)

wow what a great job, love the colors. hope that i can still quilt at 86.

Mom, did an awesome job. I love the colors in her quilt, it is so alive. And the center star block with just the hint of blue, your mom really has insite to the future. I would listen careful to her if I was you. Kiss Mom and tell her I love her work and her insitefulness (if there is such a word).

She is precious and I think she is more encouraging to us than the other way around. And I love and appreciate the encouragement. Thank you both.

Both she and the quilts are fabulous. I hope to age like she did....lucky her!!

Wow! I love bright colors!

wow, awesome quilt. Your mom did great!!

Natalie, the thread is called "My mom's quilt show". Sorry, I didn't see your question until now! My mom is coming this week end and I'm going to show her this thread, too!

Both look great.

What a wonderful smile your Mom has on that pretty face. I love the pattern and the fabric in her quilt. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her work.

I don't think I've ever seen such a fabulous use of flame fabric. Awesome! Good job Mom!!!

By the looks of that latest quilt she is one red hot momma!

That quilt has pzazz!!! Love it and your Mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow fantastic, so nice to see your mum and another of her lovely quilts after telling us about her.

Mum, are you really 86, you look so young? xxx

What a wonderful photo. I know it's one you will treasure. My mother quilted until about age 91 and I finally had her last quilt top (for a grandson) quilted for her and took her photo with it in the nursing home at age 94. It always brings a smile and fond memories when I see it.

Very pretty - you are both blessed to have each other and to share the quilting passion. God Bless you both!

That is so wonderful. What a treasure to be able to have that to share with your Mom. My Mom has made some quilts too, but waited til later in life to get started. She is now 86 too, but can't do too much because of her Macular Degeneration and Neuropathy....makes me kind of sad to see that she would have the time now, but does not have the ability. I'm glad your enjoying each moment, I know I do with my Mom too. Thanks so much for sharing with us.

86 years young
 

This is a fantastic bright quilt. I love your spunk & quilt. Kayrn

A wonderful, exciting quilt. Great job.

Here is the correct thread for the other quilts: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...s-t178891.html

Your mom is such an inspiration. She's lovely and so are her quilts! What an unusual Mariner's Compass, which is my favorite block. What creativity to use those fabrics!

Quilt and Mom are both beautiful!
