Today would have been my mother’s 76th birthday, so it seems appropriate to share a quilt made for my sister of old scarves embroidered both by our mother and us girls. Back in June I shared the quilt I made for my sister Susan from some of the old scarves.
I machine pieced this small wall hanging, 34 in X 34 in, somewhere around 2000. Cathy hand quilted.
Here you can see some of the embroidered areas better.

Such a lovely idea. Simple, yet effective - and laden with memories. Priceless.
This is a beautiful treasure, so meaningful.
I love it! It reminds me of the quilts my grandmother made . . .
This touches my heart. I have many antique handkerchiefs and have used several to make a quilt for my granddaughter...including one from my mother. Passing down memories - holding on to the good things we remember - it helps when my heart hurts and longs to see mother again. blessings, marlene
Beautiful, Ramona.
