Patty's quilt (contiuation of Korina's quilt)
 

I have noticed, when I give a quilt to someone who needs a smile, I usually make one for the Mom too. It just seems to me that they are going through as much pain, if not more, than their child.
I made this quilt for Korina's mom, Patty. She talked of her flowers so I thought this flower fabric I had in my stash might bring her a smile.

That is what giving a quilt should do, make someone, in need, a smile!! Job well done.

Very thoughtful and sweet of you! :)

That is just gorgeous!!

lovely quilt, excellent idea.

fabulous quilt!

What a very nice idea and I'm sure she will love it.

nicely done

Your lovely quilts carry as special message of love and caring in a difficult situation. You are right, when our children hurt, we as moms and dads also hurt. This family will be comforted by your thoughtfulness.

Great quilt....what a wonderful idea.

A flower garden: perfect. Beautiful.

When Patty told me about her daughter, she showed up here with her 2 remaining sisters of the original 14 siblings. One, they had picked up at a retirement home, who had dementia, but enjoyed my garden. I promised to send Patty some seeds from my columbines, and sent those in the fall.
I had a traumatic brain injury in 2008 and I remember when I was in the rehab place for a few months there was a time when I was told about some facial paralysis. I remember asking them if I would be able to smile.
My recovery from that injury is miraculous, because not only can I smile, I can sew!
So I decided to make quilts for people who need a smile or have made me smile - my list of people that fit that category is endless.
I have also retained my ability to buy fabric!

I would smile a lot looking at this!!!

Beautiful quilt and beautiful sentiment!

very nice job!!!

Pretty quilt, very thoughtful gift!

You are so clever. I love the zig zag border on this quilt. Great job.

What a great idea. I love it!

I couldn't have said it better. You are a thoughtful and caring person to do this for Korina and her mom. I had to look up Korina's story on a previous thread. Both are beautiful and sewn with love.

It's a very special quilt and so thoughtful of you to think of the mother and bring a little sunshine and beautiful flowers into her life as well.

A lovely quilt. They will all love and appreciate it.

My daughter is 34, if she had cancer I would need a quilt also. Yours is a beautiful gift from the heart.
