    Wow fantastic, so nice to see your mum and another of her lovely quilts after telling us about her.

    Mum, are you really 86, you look so young? xxx

    What a wonderful photo. I know it's one you will treasure. My mother quilted until about age 91 and I finally had her last quilt top (for a grandson) quilted for her and took her photo with it in the nursing home at age 94. It always brings a smile and fond memories when I see it.

    That is so wonderful. What a treasure to be able to have that to share with your Mom. My Mom has made some quilts too, but waited til later in life to get started. She is now 86 too, but can't do too much because of her Macular Degeneration and Neuropathy....makes me kind of sad to see that she would have the time now, but does not have the ability. I'm glad your enjoying each moment, I know I do with my Mom too. Thanks so much for sharing with us.

    Your mom is such an inspiration. She's lovely and so are her quilts! What an unusual Mariner's Compass, which is my favorite block. What creativity to use those fabrics!
