It wasn't easy getting a picture of it in the Ohio winter. Here it is flying on the line after being dropped in the snow.
Then the wind died down a little and I ran around to get a picture of the pieced back.
This is the first quilt that I longarmed different designs in each block. I was okay for a few of the blocks and ran out of ideas. Eventually something came to me. It was a longarm learning experience.
Today is the last day of the 2013 BOM Quilt Doodle Designs Blog Hop. Make sure you check out the other sites to see this quilt done in other fabrics. They all look great! Thanks, Cynthia Staub for so much quilty fun.

Wonderful color and fabric choices - love quilts with a story. And a memory quilt on top of it makes it even more special. Thank you for sharing you lovely quilt with all of us. This one is special.
Beautiful quilt and the story about make it more special.Love your fabrics combo.
That's lovely that you were able to use fabrics picked by your mom. My mom sewed when I was a kid but all I remember her making were elastic waist double knit pants! It was the 70's after all! She died before I started quilting so I never thought to sort through the fabrics for anything useful. Wonderful that you have a quilt with sentimental value!
Your quilt is beautiful! I love that you were able to incorporate your mom's fabric choices and some of her blocks into the quilt. It will be a special memory for many years.
