I have long admired people who can do hand work like sewing and quilting and can their own food harvests.
I used to do floral design and that was a lot of fun for me. Alas, old arthur has got me too.
Your quilts are so pretty- great job.

Thank you all so much for the positive feedback. My MIL is amazed with the internet and now she feels like she has friends everywhere. She is a most wonderful and kind person who dearly loves her family. I hope they will know this when they coverup with these quilts.

How warm and loving. Wish my mother-in-law was still with us and we were enjoying doing things. She left behind three candlewick quilts which she made and they are beautiful. I love quilting but arthritis grabbed me at an early age and I can't do handwork any more but do have them machine quilted when I get the tops done. We have a nice thrift store and that gives me ideas.

The quilts are beautiful!! And isn't it a blessing to have a good and sweet mother-in-law you can make memories with instead of fighting? Both of mine were absolute jewels!!

Merry Christmas!!

They are gorgeous! What a talented lady!!!

I buy flannel sheets at the Salvation Army and use cast off jeans to make rag quilts for my grandkids...I've made 7 so far and have bunches more to go. My kids want them, too but have to wait till the grandkids get theirs. They are nothing near what you've made...but the kids love them!

Oh, WOW!! I am so impressed. How kind and thoughtful of you. I'd be happy with even a lap size throw. I am going to stow this idea away in my mind for future plans.

Those are just beautiful, I'm sure they'll be cherished. What a creative and frugal gift. :)
