Awwww...



My mother was a very talented seamstress and quilter. Some of my most prized posessions are the quilts that she made. Her stitches are perfect.... she told me mine look like a big running stitch...lol. When I heard this quote, it remined me instantly of her.

  5. Aren't the stitches supposed to look like a running stitch. I guess that I didn't learn very well.

  6. Wish my mother-in-law were still alive... This sentiment fits her perfectly! I miss her after 11 years.

  13. How precious. My grandmother was like your mother she could quilt and make you think she used a machine. I miss her. I love the pic of your mom on the turkey(?). lol Thanks for sharing with us.

    P.S. As a Literature major and writer, I love to hear the stories. :-D
