How talented you are. What a nice job and so thoughtful to make one for your lucky sister too.
Sorry for your loss, but I am sure she is smiling down on you knowing that her stash has been put to good use.

What a nice tribute to your mother and to your sister, as well.
By the way, the quilting is PERFECT!!( I love hand quilting. It gives the quilt a softness that's missing in machine quilting. Someone said that handquilting is the soul of the quilt.) Don't get me wrong, I'm not against mq for others.

And I made one for me too. Machine pieced and all hand quilted.
