    I just finished the Vintage Tin quilt by Crabapple Hill. What makes it very special is that my 98 year old mother loved to embroider and did all of the blocks of this quilt except for one. She did them about a year ago and sadly can't do it anymore because of poor eyesight now. It was one of the last things she did and she really misses it. A group project--I did the piecing, she did the embroidery, and I had it quilted by a longarm quilter who did a fabulous job.
