Hi y'all, a friend lost her mother to dementia. The mother had X-stitched these blocks. I simple sewed them together for her to hand tie. Queen size quilt, two lap quilts and two pillows one for the 3 girls. Memories of their mother. Thanks for peaking. hugs

These are beautiful. Your friend (and her daughters) will cherish them forever. You've done a truly wonderful job finishing off her mother's lovely handwork.

Thanks, I was terrified to do this for fear I'd ruin it. Just hope they all like and hold a piece of their mother.

Thank you, they had been cut on the line I was to stitch on and that proved interesting to combat.
