Hello, just wanted to show you what I've been working on. My mom's 80th birthday is April 30th so I've been working hard to get this done so I can get it mailed on time. You can see my "fancy" display board (which is a queen size bed that is standing upright) when my sewing/guest bedroom is just a sewing room. I pinned white flannel to it so the colors would show true. Next weekend I hope to get it quilted. Most of the quilt was from a quilt designed by Linda Jenkins called Sunny Days Quilt. I did my borders different than the pattern. Mom's favorite color is yellow.

It is so sunny and happy! Love it!

It's beautiful. What a special gift!!!
|
So cheery, aren't you lucky to have a Mom celebrating such a special milestone!
|
Just beautiful. Your mom will enjoy looking at it and knowing you made it just for her. I made my Mom one for her 88th BD and hung it so she would see it every day and she loves it. It's a tree with leaves that had her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildrens names on them.

I love it! Gorgeous! And that is brilliant to use the bed like that for your design board! I never would have thought of it!! :D
|
That's so pretty! Your mom is going to flip! Make more!

I think you'll get to see your 80-year-old mother do back flips when she sees this quilt! Just beautiful! I bought myself some daffodils this week, and every time I look at them I feel happy. I'll bet that's what this quilt will do for your lucky mom!

Lucky you to still have your mom with you. I hope she just loves it. I know I would cry if a child of mine put so much time and work into something like this for me.
|
That's adorable!

A beautiful quilt, for sure!
And, that yellow! I can just see that quilt on her bed, all sunny and glowing ... in the gray days of winter, with smiles from everyone who sees it! Very nice job, indeed! |
My Mom would jhave loved that, her favorite was yellow also. Give her a big hug for me :D

Thank you so much for all the nice comments. It brings tears to my eyes. My Mom has been battling cancer & is doing low dose Chemo treatments right now. I'm hopeful that she will still have a few more years...we'll see what the Lord has planned for her. Thanks again. Your comments mean a lot to me.
