What a treasure, the quilt itself, and the fact that your mother made it. Definitely a family heirloom. Enjoy quilting it.

so will you hand quilt this?? Doesn't it give you goose bumps working on it? !!!

When you label it ~ if you label it....consider putting the dates that your mom was born - your age when quilting it....leaving a family history that will be passed down & treasured long after you are gone.

That's beautiful! Great story to go with it, too :) I can't believe she was 14 when she pieced it, that's just amazing!

How special! What a beautiful collaborative effort with your mom. I agree about the label, make sure you tell the story, it's a great one!

What a gorgeous quilt! Your mom did a great job with the piecing. Love that pattern. This will be a real treasure for you.
