I thought I would share with you some pictures of quilts made from my mother's embroidered quilt blocks. She is 88 and going strong.

Thanks for oohing & aahing.

Yes mom embroiders by hand. She is so fast that there are 3 of us girls she gives blocks to. We can't keep up with her so we asked her to take a break and make us each a tablecloth.

Now she is working on tops for our grandchildren.

Here are some more.
