Love the first baby quilt and especially the different colors you used for sashing. And I also loved the butterful quilt and the story behind it!

Maybe some other family members would like the butterflies made by your mom in frames? Then everyone would always have them to enjoy. Just a thought.....

One of your Mom's butterflies is a TWIN to a butterfly my Grandmother had made in the 1930's. The blue one on the beige background is the very same material, and my Grandma had also done the butterfly quilt with them.
Your quilts are wonderful, too!
