    Default Lace quilt

    My mother crochet this lace about 15 years ago and she gave it to me before she past away. Not knowing what to do with it I decide to make this queen size bed quilt . Thanks for looking![ATTACH=CONFIG]546246[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]546247[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]546248[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]546249[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]546251[/ATTACH]

    What a nice way to use the lovely lace your mother made.

    It is absolutely exquisite and stunning beyond words with your mothers lace. Have not see anything like this in a very long time and certainly nothing as stunning as this. This is one of those quilts that should never leave your possession at all. I would not trust anyone else with this. You did your mother proud!

    What a great way to honor her work & remember her. Don't forget to put a label on it!

    Marvelous! Much better than being packed away and never seen.
