Great job, I love the colors. Just goes to show what you can do with a littl determination.My mother always told us kids you can do any thing you set your mind to. It may take a little longer but you can do it. Never give up.

Good for you! My mother is 81 and has been sewing since she was 5 years old. Her mother taught sewing for the Singer Company and made party dresses for the wealthier ladies in town. Well, my Mom got macular degeneration and is now legally blind. She is unable to read, but she still pieces quilt tops. We have a dear friend that quilts them for her at a reduced price. The quality of her work isn't what it used to be, but these later quilts are even more precious to us that the more perfect ones she made when she could see. I encourage everyone to keep doing what you love and when you can't do it anymore, love to do something else!

I am amazed! Lovely work and colors in the quilt. Keep it up. Your determination to quilt inspires me to keep crafting.

Mom crochets to pass her time and makes sweaters. Diabetes is taking her vision. It is the same feeling as you have for quilting.
