Mother/Daughter Quilt
My mom is a quilter. She quilts by hand, machine, and love. Her excitable ties to fabric is just one of her loves about quilting. So, a few days ago, she decided that we were going to make a quilt together, since we have plenty of opportunities to be using our hands; readings during school, while watching movies, during our nightly bible reading, etc. So we began two days ago and have been cutting out 2 inch squares of fabric and sewing them together to make pairs, and then we’ll make fours, then eights, etc. until we have a big comfy quilt to let all of our cares fade into. We don’t know if it will go into my hope chest or in our blanket basket for everyday use.
We have only been working on it for two days and this is how much has been completed in a leisurely pace. We think it just might get finished before we thought…

Hello, Maggie!
Your quilt is looking beautiful! I love all of the unique patterns in each square…what a wonderful mother/daughter project.

Oh, Maggie, what a gorgeous quilt! That is such a sweet thing to do with your mom.
Thank you for your email!!! I look forward to every one!
What a lovely quilt! I cant wait to see the finished project! How old were you when you started working with your mother sewing? I am a newbie to the sewing machine myself (still learning) but I would love to get my daughters involved just not sure at what age or what to start with. Would love to hear some suggestions!
I love quilts, but I’ve never tried to do one before. Are they as hard to do as they look? They look like you have to be very precise. They are beautiful, though.

I think it’s wonderful that you two are so close and can work on this together and enjoy it.
Hope you are well and enjoy the day!

I knew this would happen someday.
Oh, so lovely! I love patch-work quilts…
I am just tickled about this project. When we get it finished we will certainly post a photo of it-character and all. Those who know me know that any quilt I help fashion has CHARACTER, which translates to ….mistakes and icky things. But in the end….it serves its purpose of cuddling and keeping some one cozy.
Happy Stitchin!!!

Hi,
I’m sorry I haven’t stopped by in such a looong time!
The quilt-to-be looks beautiful already. Is it difficult to make a quilt? I’ve always been interested in trying to make one myself.
Hope you have a blessed day!
