My beautiful Mother celebrates her 80th birthday this week!
Juicy fruit colors and pale pastels....
vibrant (happy, lively, cheerful, adventurous),
and soft (quiet, thoughtful, composed, loving), like her!
I improvised a little 3" (finished) x block....
Ahh, that's better!
Straight line machine quilting with every pale color I had,
6"x14", to fit a feather neck roll form I found online at Bed, Bath and Beyond...
I hope it is nice :)
A speedy little finish, but it is packed full of love!
Happy LXXXth Birthday to Mom!

Sure love our mommy, my sweet sister Sarah����
Thank you����
Of course you are, my sweet sister Weezie <3 xoxo
A beautiful post to celebrate a beautiful woman! Your mother does not look her age at all and seems full of love and life. Lovely tribute Sarah - you seem to be much like her perhaps. Your siblings all look to be close in age too.
What a lovely idea. I love it. You are so lucky to still have your mom with you. She is lucky to have a daughter like you too.
Sweet finish Sarah!!! I love how you went about making decisions for it!!! Happy Birthday to your mom!!! She is a young 80; i think she looks around 60!!!!!
Awww! Happy birthday to your beautiful mom! What a lovely and thoughtful gift you made her. Love and kisses are the best!
Happy Birthday to your Mother. Thank you for sharing the story behind your gift, so beautiful.

Lovely, moving post, lovely idea, lovely gift. Happy birthday to your mum too; she is looking great!
That really is packed full of love for your mom. And so is this post Sarah! Happy birthday to your mom! I can see where you get your beauty.
I read this post like reading a mystery novel. See, I thought you were trying to spell LOVE or X and O. But it was only on the last page of the novel, that the Roman numerals mystery jigsaw puzzle piece clicked together in my brain. I had such an AHA moment.
Wow, the little details, the choice of colors and overall cuteness makes it an amazing gift. Glad that my mother does not read blogs, otherwise she'd be demanding one too :-)
Hugs,
Preeti.
