    Talking The quilt my Mom made came today!!!

    A few days ago I posted pictures of the quilt my mom made me. She has sent the pictures of it since it would not arrive in time for Christmas. Well, it got her today and I am completely blown away by it. It's gorgeous!!!! The pictures didn't even come close to doing it justice. The colors as so vibrant and the stitching is amazing. I couldn't even wait for DH to get home from work before I opened it (I did call and ask him if he minded if I opened it without him and he said go ahead because he knew it would be too hard for me to wait ). I'm just feeling so blessed!!!

    Debbie, I learned a long time ago that pictures don't do quilts justice. I can imagine what yours looks like after seeing those pictures. I'm sure the colors are something else.

    Enjoy your quilt.

    Ya know, it just might! Right now I can't put it on the bed because the kittens are still using their claws on the bedding to crawl up. We have a raised bed with storage underneath, so it is a long way for them to have to jump and they don't always make it.
