Grandmother's Vintage Blocks

A friend of mine recently sent me these photos of a quilt I made for her way back in 2002.  She brought me some Grandmother's Flower Garden blocks her grandmother had made. I decided rather than trying to attach them and finish the quilt that way I would applique several on a muslin background.  Some repros fabric in the border, and a large stitch hand quilting finished this little memory quilt!

Mom Quilt

A fun project, gather some children and do handprint/footprint art: the children print with acrylic paint and add details to their prints. They sign and date their blocks. Then a simple arrangement with a charm pack and some triangle corners, a border, and WOW! A moment in time and precious memories are forever saved!
Made Spring break, 2015 . Remembering a moment with Sienna, Olivia and Preston.
