God Bless your mother. Start with one group at a time, see if she wants anyone special to get a quilt. When you have finished them just imagine how wonderful it will be, to be surrounded by all that LOVE. Hugs to your mom who helped all those ill people out there that needed her and to her 'love of quilting.' God Bless!!!!!!!!!!
