Well Melanie...
Where ever your sweet words came from never change! And as for calling your mother, Mum or mamma, don't ever change that either. My mother is going and has been for fourteen years, my aunt is still with us, she is 91 years young and my cousin still calls her Mamma. That just shows love in my eyes. My sister once told my mother she felt she was to old for my mother to kiss her goodbuy, my mother told her she would never be to old for a kiss of love~ She was right!
I have no idea, rereading what I wrote you.... Or where my fingers were going, but it sure wasn't on the right keys... Hope you were able to follow me? ;-) . . . .
Be sure to share your next quilt with all of us...

You did a great job. If it were me, I would put your Mum's quilt aside and make the other one. Then, if you have the time, add another row to your Mum's quilt, making it a rectangle. I am always sorry that I didn't make my square quilts rectangle, and always end up using them as a table cover rather than a quilt. MHO.....

There will be an extra 12 inches all around since I'm putting a 4 and a 2 inch border on it, in plain blue and red, so basically it will be about 70" x 70"... that's ok to go on the back of a sofa, right?


Looks great. That will be a great size for a sofa quilt. Nice and long for tall people. :D
