Happy Mother's Day!

To all the Moms and Moms-to-be,

Happy Mother's Day!!

Because it is mother's day I decided
to give you a glimpse into the
amazing talent and art of my Mom.

An appliqued wall hanging.


When it was time for a new bedspread,
me and Mom headed off to the fabric store and
picked out fabric for a new quilt for my daughters bedroom.


And in no time this is what she created!


Another wall hanging for a contest she entered.




Hand quilted.

The back - the stitching is amazing to me,
so uniform and detailed.

My Mom has an amazing gift of creativity and
even her food presentation is
a work of art.


When I ask her to bring the cranberry salad for
Thanksgiving, she brought in an
art form.


And the neat thing is -
She is passsing it on to the next generation.


Cody and Grandma - sewing!


As I was writing this I was looking for
a picture of my Mom and I
 to post here,
but couldn't find one.
So next time we are together it is time for
a photo shoot.
(are you "listening", Marilyn?)


Enjoy your day with your Mom
or
being a Mom.
