They are beautiful ! I started making one with an extra row. Hopefully I'll live long enough to finish it. Congratulations to your Grandma !

Love them. Making them probably keeps her going. Lots of potential uses.

I was in the hospital a couple of times last year, and while I was recuperating I sat and cut and sewed the same "flowers" while I watched TV or just rested. I put them together in a quilt that I call my "Recovery Quilt". Made a difficult time pass quicker, when I didn't feel up to getting back to my machine. You'll have great memories too, being creative with your Mom's flowers!
