    My mom passed away unexpectedly three weeks ago. While cleaning out her apartment I came across a box of fabric she had tucked in the back of her bedroom closet. I made this from one of the piece's of fabric to send to my sister. Happy Mother's Day to all you moms. Hope have the opportunity to spend it with your mom.

    Blessings!

    I am sorry for your loss. The bag is a wonderful gift. I, too, do not have a mom, but I wish all women friends happy mothers day. Thank you for sharing.

    It is a beautiful gift for your sister. One she will treasure I am sure. I spend mothers day with my mother everyday. Because she is always in my thoughts and memories.

    Beautiful bag, and I'm sorry you have lost your mom. Mine has passed on as well, way too early. Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there...

    What a thoughtful gift for your sister. I lost my mom on Christmas Eve 1977. And, I miss her every day. But, just think what a celebration was going on in Heaven that she got to see. The same can be said for Mother's Day. All the mothers up there will have a very special day!
