    Tears of surprise and joy that is: Look what she gave me today. I had joked with her about not making a quilt for me, she came to mom's house today and we always have show and tell when we get together. She showed me this beautiful quilt she made and I was awed by it, she had quilted it with sewing machines, needles, bobbins, spools and scissors. My daughter said oh look at the tag mom and it was for me!!!!!!!!!!!! Then the tears flowed.........

    yellows, oranges, dark green and black
