I finished my mom's quilt - 60 years later
3 Attachment(s)
Awhile back I posted pics of my mom's quilt that I was going to make wider and bind it. For some reason she never got to it and my brother and SIL found it in the attic of the farmhouse that she ad my dad had lived in for more years than I can remember. Anyway, here it is, hope you approve.

Absolutely gorgeous! What a treasure.

A very beautiful quilt! I love the tiny floral patterns and having trying to find and collect some for a future quilt. I think you did a super job of enlarging. I would not have known where to start, but maybe someday....

Yesterday's UFO but today's treasure! If it had been finished into a quilt, it would probably be worn out and discarded.

The quilt is quite a treasure! Love your label!

Why wouldn't we approve! Anything made by mothers or any other family member is greatly appreciated and to be able to complete the process is such an honor! I think it is beautiful!

Thank you all for your generous comments. I forgot to mention that I'm going to give this quilt back to my brother and SIL since they found it in the first place. They were really excited to have it, so that's where it should be.
