What a lovely story. I'm so sorry your Mom has passed but she has a beautiful legacy in you. Your quilt just adds an extra something. Thanks for sharing. It's such a moving, inspiring story. yes, love the doggies too. :-D

Yes. I know what you mean, for me it's been 17 years this year. I remember a women I knew at the time, told me just that. she was 78 and still missed her Mother, who had been gone for almost 40 years.
the pain eases with time, and memories take over.

Your fabric choices certainly capture the elegance that you remember about your mother

Ladies,
I am sorry for all of you with your loss. I still have my Mother but, health is not good. I lost my Dad 25 years ago and it seems like last week sometimes. He was my best friend. Never judged me when I made mistakes, and I made and still make, plenty of them. Just had a way or steering me right without saying this IS what you are going to do. Having said all this, I pray that each of you will have comfort and those invisible arms will wrap around you and hold you in a way only a parent can do!
