My Mom
has been gone 18 years now.
As I was cleaning out more 'gotta-keep-it' bins, I discovered negatives.
Amongst them I found a couple of
quilt pictures.
A perfect way to start this year's blogging; showing a couple of her
creations.
She only
patched from scraps, which is probably why I lean towards scrappy quilts;
I suppose it's also out of respect for who she was.
I still have one unfinished
patchwork top of hers that I will (eventually) complete with batting and
backing - it will be a "combination quilt" - old meets new.
Unlike
the picture I've included here ^^ which as far as I can see are made from (yikes)
fortrel, the quilt top I have is made of cotton or cotton blend
fabrics. :)
What lovely memories, and it's so nice that you will have a quilt made by both you and your Mom.
