Your son will love it so much--you did a wonderful job.
I have a friend who said her mother has become very negative about everything. When I asked her when it started, she replied that it was about the time she couldn't sew anymore. It would be nice if she saw it as a tradition passed down from one generation to the next, but I guess she can't do that. I think about my grandmothers and their love of sewing many times when I'm at the machine.
Congratulations on the finish and keep going

Wow! All hand sewn and quilted! I could never have the patience to do that. It's beautiful so just give it to your son and he'll love it! And forget what your aunt says......we old foggies do get kind of cranky in our old age sometimes, LOL!

Very nice, and to be your first quilt and hand-quilted - - - great job. Ditto what cybrarian said. Sometimes our older relatives become cynical and downright grumpy. Good for you for taking a positive attitude. Keep up the great work.

I think you did a wonderful job on the piecing and quilting!!!!!! As a brand new quilter it looks like you tackled a hard quilt and won! Please do not let your aunt discourage you, I would be ecstatic if I could do one this nice!
