Attached are two pictures of the quilts I made after Mom passed away.

These are very nice, and I'm sure they are truly appreciated by those who received them.

Those are just lovely Debra. You're mother was a beautiful woman. Such a thoughtful thing for you to do to keep her memory alive. :)

What a lovely way to remember your Mum,so very special. Did you make the 5 quilts for your siblings. I made a memorial quilt for my grandmother when she passed away and it bought me some measure of peace. I hope making those quilts for your Mum did the same for you.

Thank you both. They were very well received by my sister and brothers. I even kept on for myself. LOL They only way I could do them, was to do them all at once. It actually went faster then I expected once I got started. When I am feeling down, I just curl up under mine until I feel better.

Aww that's wonderful Debra. I feel the same way every time I use my mom's old machine. I remember her making my clothes on that machine, and now I make memories with my quilts on it.

I did make one quilt for a sister using a piece or two of my mom and dad's clothing. It means the world to her.

Those are wonderful. I can see how much comfort and memories they hold. Very special.

Isn't it amazing how much our parents mean to us? I mean, growing up we take them for granted (normal), and even more normal, can't wait to get out of the house. But when I don't see them, I miss them.

I hope I can get around to doing that before they're gone and can appreciate what it means to me and them. (If any of that made sense!) I also hope mine will be half as nice as yours!

The quilts are just beautiful and your mother was a beautiful woman, too.
