OT...Quilt pics (Debra G!)

Hi All!

A while back, before my surgery, I had mentioned the quilt my Mom made us for Christmas. A couple of people had commented that they'd like to see pics of it, well I finally transferred the pics from camera to pc so here they are!

I told Mom the other day that whenever I got sad that she wasn't here around my surgery time I just wrapped myself in the quilt & felt her love, & that I will forever be able to keep her love with me through the quilt. She doesn't often get emotional but at that moment I knew that she knew that I understood the time & care that goes into a handmade project like this.

Ok, enough sappyness for one day...lol!!

Wow, that is a beautiful quilt.  My grandmother taught me how to quilt a long time ago, so I know how much effort and love was put into this one.  It is truly a treasure.

Just wonderful!!! what a special thing from your mom that you will treasure for the rest of your life... Wow...

thanks for sharing the pictures

How gorgeous.  I just love quilts and one day when I have the time, I will learn how to do this!  Your mom does great work! What a great way to keep memory of her for years to come.  My grandmother loved to crochet.  She died many years ago, but one thing I have of hers is a set of about 24 snowflakes that she crochet and then starched with a sugar glaze.  I put them on my tree every year and they are such a special reminder of her. 

That is so beautiful. And such a great reminder of her love.

Beautiful work! Wow!  Nice! 

Beautiful!!!!

That is beautiful!!! You are very lucky to have such a talented mom!! What a nice way to be close to her as well!

Absolutely stunning !!   My mother-in-law is/was a quilter.  She does/did beautiful work.  (I say it that way since she has had a massive stroke she is no longer going to be able to quit)

It's such an amazing talent to have.  I plan on teaching my girls (and boy if he wants to).  I love doing it.  The colours and patterns and possibilities are endless :)

Beautiful!! What a lovely way of having the warmth and comfort of your Mom everyday, even

when she's not with you.  I am a quilter as well, and I can appreciate all of the hours, and love she

put into this project for you.  My Mom taught me how to quilt and taught quilting classes, I have sure

missed my Mom on this journey, but I know she's been watching over me and I cuddle with one of the

quilts she made me every night!  Thanks for sharing, now I'm feeling all sappy too!
