Love the quilt and love the fact that you are doing something for your Mom that she is still able to do. Dementia is not fun for anyone!

The quilt is beautiful. So good that you were able to put it all together and that you mom will be able to quilt it.

The house quilt is beautiful. I like the block design in the corner of the house; it makes it unique.

I will let mom do the hand quilting on the top. It will give her
something to do for awhile. I really like the piecing part better.
The time we spend putting tops together will always be special.
I will remember them everytime I look at the quilt. I have another top that we worked on that needs a little more applique on the borders that I should finish soon. So I will be keepiing her busy for awhile.

I love the house blocks too! I mean I really love the Sampler effect of the different centers. I hope you don't mind if I take some inspiration from your beautiful work.

I sure hope that she continues to be able to hand quilt. What a jewel you are to help her in her diminished state it must be very hard on you. Bless your heart.

You did a wonderful job on setting the blocks together. Especially since the pattern couldn't be found. You must be a natural talent at quilting.
