Mom's quilt

Before I was born my Mom made a quilt.  I don't know much about it because it wasn't out while I was growing up, although it does look well used on the edges.

My Mom died 10 years ago, and it's nice to have a quilt that she made since I recently started quilting.


I took a picture of a few of my favorite squares.


She did most of the sewing with a straight line, but every once in a while there's something different.  Below is a heartbeat shaped one.

    So nice to have something of your mom's. I bet you can feel her close to you when you hold it.

    I love all those shapes in the piecing. This is a great quilt and a lovely memory of your mum.
