It's my Mom's Jewel Box quilt that I quilted and delivered. :-) I have a set of blocks somewhere, and I need to get mine together now! I love my Mom's quilt. :-)
While visiting my parents, my Mom and I always work on a few projects. She found a tote similar to this on the Babylock website. We revised the pattern a bit and made one for each of us and they became our 'yo-yo buckets'. ;-) You can see both our totes on my Mom's blog~ here.
We also made bunches of yo-yo's for a table topper project. :-) I finished mine, and Mom is nearly done with hers. The pattern is from a Thimbleberries booklet called 'Cottagewood Quilts'. The fabrics are from my Mom's stash. :-)) Thanks Mom!
That's all for now~
until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!

How lovely to sew with your Mum!
The quilt is beautiful! The tote is so cute and so useful too. All of those yoyo's certainly turned into a darling table topper.
I bet she just loved her quilt!! How fun to have time spent together..treasure the moments for sure!
It sounds like you two had lots of fun together. Your quilt is gorgeous and I love those Yo-Yos.
Fun- wasn't it. I have the last row of yo-yo's almost finished. May get a picture on my blog tomorrow. 88 degrees here today.
The quilt turned out just beautiful! What a great way to spend Mother's Day weekend! I'm sure it was special to both of you!
Your mom's quilt is wonderful Sandie! Nice job on the quilting! 8-)
Adorable tool tote! Thanks for the link to instructions for it!
Love your yo-yo table topper! I have seen such before, and it is on my "to do" list... 8-)
Happy stitchings!
I'm thinking the same as the first commenter--it would be lovely to sew with my mom! But she doesn't sew much these days, and only ever made clothing before. What a great time you and your mom had with your yo yos, love 'em.
