    Default 23 years later.....
    Long story... Mom died in 1992, left 4 daughters some unfinished quilt tops. Fast forward 23 years and my sis decided to get hers out and finished! I got to quilt the first one,and I'm thrilled how nicely it turned out. The pieced back adds to that home made flavor too! Mom would be proud to think it was all quilted in 3 hours! Not perfect in any way, but done with tons of love!

    very pretty quilt
    Yes she would be proud to see them done.

    remember life isn't perfect so your quilts don't have to be either.

    love the design of the blocks

    A nice finish and the quilting compliments the blocks.
