Well, you've done squares, and half square triangles, and for goodness sakes, you've even done curved piecing in the world-without-end. You're a pro! Now you have to find quiet time to sit and hand quilt. I really like your mom's quilt. By the way, that framed picture behind her bed should be hung higher -- I own a picture framing store and I notice things like that.
You have a smile just like an old friend of mine, Joan Palma, squinty eyes and all. I'll send a couple of jpgs of my quilts later.
