1 make templates. This can be done several ways. You will want the leaves and the quilting designs. I appears this was a quilt with wreathes in the center and a vine around the edge.

2. Sketch and measure on paper. Make a plan. Layout on fabric

3. Appliqué

This is the kind of project that I love to do. The more time you take to measure, plan, observe the better the outcome.

Then cut the rest of the quilt pieces into squares, all the same size. Don't know how big from your pics. Any smaller pieces that are left over I would have framed for family members. I would then arrange the squares with pieced blocks of the same size from your fabric. I would do a quilt as you go, so you wouldn't loose any of your dggm's quilting. Quilt your blocks individually, then join to her already quilted blocks using sashing. I'm anxious to see other's suggestions!!
