    Default A Very Vintage Christmas

    I'm always looking for embroidery projects for my 97 year old mom who used to be a quilter. I found these red work patterns and told her if she would embroider the blocks, I would put them together and hand quilt it. She got them done in no time! I'll give this wallhanging to her before the holiday season starts. I think it will be a surprise to her.

    Wonderful wall hanging. A good daughter indeed. Congratulations to your Mom having attained that age.

    That is beautiful but the best part is your Mom still likes to embroider!

    She did a wonderful job and I am sure she was loving to have something to do. You did a great job finishing off her work and she will be so happy to see everything put together so nicely.

    What a pretty Christmas wall hanging the two of you made together. I am sure she will be delighted with what you made with her embroidery.
