    Your quilt is going to be a beautiful heirloom and who better to honor than your mother. Your blocks are beautiful. Keep sharing.

    Spectacular, Anael!
    Nice touch with those ♥s The echo quilting really shows off the applique nicely.
    You're really zooming along with all this stitching!

    Thanks all for your compliments

    Some of the blocks want lots of quilting and some don't. This one didn't and I listened

    I thought I lay it out on my bed and have a look. As you can see the borders are on too, did that last weekend.

    Oh yessssssssss!!!
    Thank you for showing us the whole quilt, Anael.
    You have a real treasure of a masterpiece that gets better with every stitch.
    Good to listen, when the quilt talks to you ... the petals in the plain triangles are very effective, giving it a new dimension.

    And you say "still a long way to go" ..... looks like you are closing in on half way. Speedy you are!

    Oh how nice!!! ... stamens out the top of the flowers ... and the drapey (word?) effect really adds nicely to it.

    Surely, not the last for today .. you still have hours before you sleep!!!
