Beautiful quilt and quilting.

Sorry to hear your MIL is ill, but thoughts and prayers go out for her recovery.

She will love this.

It shows up better on the back. I just love working with batiks! (This is my first time posting, so hopefully it works)

I love the colors and your quilting looks very nice. I'm sure your MIL will be very pleased with her lap quilt.
