I made my first gift quilt to my mom, I had actually planned on giving her the very first quilt I made, but she deserves better, so I practiced on a few and then made her this: Firey Emeralds. It is the biggest quilt I've made so far: 58x78. It wasn't planned that big, it just grew in the process,lol. I loved strip piecing this quilt, it went together fast..can't say the same about quilting it though, although I did enjoy using the variegated thread for quilting for the first time. It is a surprise, she has no clue that I am making a quilt for her, and she is coming over this year for Christmas, I can't wait for her to get it.
Thanks for looking all, and Happy Holidays to you and yours! |
How pretty! Your mother will adore it, more so because it came from your heart.

Your mom will love this - it is beautiful!!
I made my mom a quilt for Christmas too. She got it early, because we all wanted to celebrate before my daughter went to her dad's for the holidays. Mom cried and was so thankful. I'm pretty sure you could have offered her your very first quilt and your mom would have loved every thread and been thrilled, no matter how bad it was. Mom's have that ability. My favourite Christmas present this year is a picture my 5yo daughter drew of a lemonade stand. She spent so much time drawing it for me, hiding it every time I was near and wrapping it up to put under the tree. I loved it more for the love and effort she put into it than anything. :) |
