I've shown them to my mom but she prefers to embroider on pillow cases and kitchen towels. Our mothers can be stubborn!<br /><br />RainGardener - Thank you. I switch it from the chair to the coffee table. I prefer it on the coffee table but sometimes I have to move it when my mom's grandkids come over, my nieces and nephews cause they love to play dice or color on it.Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196096131750922174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567723504977931374.post-68044015273320919602010-01-10T17:52:23.603-08:002010-01-10T17:52:23.603-08:00Happy To Be/Gloria - It's always nice to have ...Happy To Be/Gloria - It's always nice to have those items handed down from generation to generation.

First of all...the talent and craftmanship involved just boggles my little mind...then, there is the time and patience a project like that would require...Ohhh my!!! I'm just soooo happy for you though...that this lovely piece has been handed down to you by your sweet mother! What a family heirloom...such a sweet treasure!!! Ohhh...and I just love the gorgeous butterfly piece that she made for you!!! It's fabulous!!! I love how it looks draped over the back of your chair! But a piece like that really is versatile! It would make a beautiful table runner for a pretty tablescape too!!! I would just adore having something like that for a pretty table setting!!! Your mother is certainly one talented lady...what a blessing to have such a special mama!!!<br /><br />Well Darlin', what a sweet post to share with all of us for Sunday Favorites!!!

Goodness!<br /><br />You know, when my mother passed away, I remember looking at her still hands, and how beautiful they were, and thinking about all the wonderful things they had done during her lifetime. She too was always sewing, cleaning, cooking, painting, crocheting, gardening ... and I felt heartbroken. You're so lucky to still have your mom, and I'm glad you cherish her.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03382221688268676914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567723504977931374.post-85201197794349463402010-01-09T19:56:17.399-08:002010-01-09T19:56:17.399-08:00A wonderful work of Art from your Mama hands....ju...A wonderful work of Art from your Mama hands....just beautiful my friend....I also have a few pieces that my Mama did many years ago and to me they are priceless...Thanks for sharing yours....Hugs and smiles Gl♥riaHappy To Be/ Gl♥riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515180398559277746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567723504977931374.post-90550894570709350162010-01-09T19:39:15.372-08:002010-01-09T19:39:15.372-08:00Diann@The Thrifty Groove - I keep telling her we n...Diann@The Thrifty Groove - I keep telling her we need to open an online store.
