The quilt is beautiful, you should keep it out to remind you of the happy times you had with your Mom. I made a table runner for my MIL as one of my first quilting projects and she passed away in Nov. My FIL has mild Alzheimer's and does not know where it is. His health is not very good so I will wait and when we go through their "stuff" I am sure I will find it. Then I will display it so our grandchildren will have something to remember her by too.

What a beautiful gift to your Mom and back to you. I agree that you should use it, and know that your Mom is close every time that you do.

What a nice story. I am glad your mom got to enjoy it for a while before she was gone. Send hugs to your step-father.

Your quilt is lovely. Sorry for your loss. I know she treasured this gift and I'm so glad you got it back. Now, you can take it out and hold it on occasions that you really need to feel your mother's love.
