Quilts My Mother Made
Hand Quilted Between 1980 and 1988

Post a CommentWhat amazing quilts your mother made.
You have a beautiful legacy. Thank you.
Amy is one of my quilting buddies and I have seen some of these quilts. She is so lucky to have such beautiful works of her mother. Amy, herself, is well on the way to making gorgeous quilts of her own. She also makes lace, knits, and cooks like a chef. A very talented person.
Beautiful quilts, Amy! Did your mother hand quilt these?
Terrific quilts! Thanks for posting them Amy.
