I love stuffed cabbage but I forgot how to make them. Go figure. That is a gorgeous quilt. Your mother was really young. My mom had just turned 45 when sh died and she died 1969. You will cherish that quilt as long as you live and I am sure Joshua after you are gone. Your sister is so talented. Hugs.
That quilt was absolutely beautiful and so full of you & your Sisters memories! That is one of the greatest presents I've ever seen! I heard you say your sisters name is Paula. That's my sister's name too! :) We had cabbage here at my house too as tradition. I am the only that eats it. My Fiance does not like it at all. So it was more for me & I enjoyed the whole pot by myself. Hehe! We got a lil snow here awhile back & I hear there's more to come soon. Hope ya'll are doing well. Love & Mooches!
Hi melissa Im so glad you guys are doing well. That quilt is the sweetest thing ever, what a wonderful thing to have. You actually have winter its been unusually warm her in calif. its been in the 60s since christmas. Not that im complaining lol.
Melissa your quilt is stunning! What a marvellous idea to use your mom's clothing and how special that instantly made the quilt. Your sister did a wonderful job and as soon as you took it out of the box, I know it became a treasure. The back is very special. I would have cried as well! oh my, look at all your snow! Yes, winter has arrived! -roc
That's got to be one of the most thoughtful things I've ever seen. I especially think the stuff on the back is really wonderful. All those memories. Wow!
Beautiful quilt, and a lot of memories wrapped up in it. I suspect it could keep you very cozy on a cold winter day.
I have a quilt my mother made, and when she gave it to me I had to promise that I would NOT "keep it safe on a shelf in the closet." It's been on my bed for the 30+ years since, a constant, quiet reminder of her.
You stirred a long forgotten memory. As a kid, we had cabbage on New Years, and my Grandmother would hide a quarter in it. Whoever got it had good luck for the year
A keepsake for sure! Oh your mom was way to young to lose he life :( That must have been so hard on you girls. I love the quilt just precious! Burrr the snow! So nice to see you last night!
@cring768 The quilt was a total surprise. My sister is so sweet. When I suggested she make a quilt out of mom's clothes it was probably first suggest 20 years ago. Hugs!
a quilt from your mom's clothes that is so nice and wonderful ! I am so happy for you and all the memories that it can bring back, take care and hugs !
My sister is just the best! The quilt was a total surprise as when we first talked about making a quilt of our mom's clothes it had to be over 20 years ago. Hugs!!
Oh Melissa, my eyes filled up with tears when i saw this beautiful meaninful quilt, my sister has kept all my mother's clothes and she died 10 yrs ago, but neither of us is talented enough to make a quilt. treasure it always , i love the little personal touchs your sister has added, hugs, Caroline,xx Beautiful snowscene at the end, the Hollar is a beautiful place!
@longcara Caroline I'm very sentimental too and the quilt just made me boohoo! She was crying too. It is my true treasure and I will cherish the quilt. Our snow is almost gone now. Hugs girl!
That quilt is beautiful....I also lost my mother also when I was 16 in 1971 my grandmother did the samething for my sisiter when she was pregnant with her first daughter she had some of moms clothes that she cut up and made a baby blanket out of it my sister still has it it`s 36 years old now my grandmother if still living would have just turned last month 116 she made this baby blanket at the age 81...lived to 92
@Carballoca Aww, Pam how sweet of your grandmother. I'm sure that baby blanket is so cherished. When Mom died it was just my sister and me. We were estranged from our Dad and so it was us against the world. That is why we are extra close. Hugs girl!
What a wonderful, wonderful gift of love. So sweet and sentimental of your sister. As everyone has already said, it's priceless and so comforting to be able to wrap yourself in your mothers clothes. Oh I could just go on and on. Tell your sister how wonderful we think she is, it must run in the family. Love you girl. What a beautiful view from your front door.
@Ativabrand My sister is absolutely the best. The quilt was such a surprise because when we first talked about a quilt out of mom's clothes it had to be over 20 years ago. I will tell Sister how everyone loved her gift. Hugs!
That's a great quilt I wish something like that had been done when my grandmother died she was always going to rag shakings and thrift stores and such she had enough clothes to cover the east coast I do believe.
That is the most beautiful and meaningful quilt and you are so lucky to have a sister who took the time to make something like that for you and for herself. Wow! What a treasure! I would have been crying too!
It was so good chatting with you in the "hangout" tonight!! LOL xoxo
OMG that quilt is amazing. What a wonderful gift. Being able to wrap yourself in the fabric from your Mom and the stitching of your sister..,.love all around. Made me cry. Thanks for sharing and the vid......
Brrrrr it looks cold. I love that quilt your sister made for you. She is very talented to be able to put that all together and the personal side is wonderful. I know you will treasure it always.
What a wonderful thing for your sis to do!! Yes...I was crying too. I would be snuggling up in it right now. Looks cold up in the holler...burrrrrrrrrr.....sending warms hugs to you and James:)
You've got me crying ... if that's not the most wonderful gift ! May that quilt bring you more comfort than we can even imagine. Hebrews 12:1 I believe she's been cheering you & your sister on, all these years.
The guilt was beautiful, it must be real special for you. We had a record high temp today here in Iowa, 64. I almost wanted to put shorts on, lol Corn beef and cabbage sound great, have not had it I bet for at least a year. Take care Melissa. Drive carefully
Here in TN we have blackeyed peas and hog jowl for new years day.
That quilt is beautiful! I cannot imagine the memories it evokes.
I wish we would get some of that snow here. So far we have had 9 snowflakes....yes, I counted them....LOL! We have had the cold weather (18f ) but no snow :(
@lynncrum All the fabric in the quilt... I can remember the tops and pants my mom wore. She was a tiny woman and so cute in her outrageous prints. That was the style back then. LOL at 9 snowflakes. I like the snow... it's pretty.. but I want it to melt off after a few hours. Thanks for watching and Hugs!
Good to hear yall had a good New Years. Thats so nice of her too do that and too know that it was a part of your mother as well im sure that is something very special to have now.. Your mother looked like she dressed like my one grandmother. She would make all her clothes as well. Such a sweet gift now that is a gift you can actually use and smile everytime you do. No snow here it is back in the 60's again here. The weather is super crazy! we had 2 days of cold weather thats it.
@christopherinsc1981 Christopher my sister is just best and I know it took so much time for her to make that quilt. It's awesome and I will cherish it forever. I think Winter has finally arrived here. We had a very warm December. Hugs!
I read that the cabbage represents money and thought of you immediately since we had written about that :)
oh Melissa. The quilt is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I'm glad your sister kept your mom's clothes and now it has become a quilt. I thought that as soon as I saw it--70s fabric for sure. How lovely that your sister did that. I'm sure you cried when you opened that gift up.
aww you just said it :) I would have, definitely. Thanks for sharing ith with us.
@silverscreamgrl LOL omg that 70's fabric. My mother was a tiny woman and she would look so cute in those wild prints. All polyester of course! hahaha. My sister is just the best and I will cherish that quilt for ever. So good seeing you last night on chat... you chipmunk! haha. Hugs!
@GrandpaJim777 Hey Jim... so good to see you. We had a very warm Dec but I guess winter has arrived. UGH. The quilt is wonderful and I love my sister very much. Hugs!
that's got 2 b the sweetest gift ever.my momma will b gone 2 yrs on the 20th. u know that snow reminded me off when i was little we lived n bristol, tn/abingdon, va. (dont know if its abington or abingdon) we live n between 4 mountains called possum holler :) n e way i didnt keep momma's clothes but i did keep her purses.thank u for sharing that w/ us melissa.btw u mean u going out n that mess for hamburgers, lol. be careful ;)
@sheardelightful OMG I love the name possum holler! What a hoot! You know so many of my subs do not know what a holler is. When I tell them it's a hollow the sort of understand. My sister is just the best and the quilt will be cherished! When I went out the snow was not on the roads just on the grass and places. It's almost now. Hugs!
What a beautiful, wonderful gift of the quilt and all the memories of growing up. Your sister made you something that has to mean the world to you. My mom died on 79 and I have nothing oh hers as I married and moved to Florida bur I have my memories that no one can ever take from me. Darn my tears have not stopped since you showed the quilt.
@Serramist Sierra the quilt was a wonderful gift and such a surprise. Aww, I'm so sorry you have nothing of your mother's... but you do have your memories and you are right, no one can take that away. Hugs girl!
@IWalk4tnt Sandi the quilt was so wonderful and such a surprise. I had no idea she was making the thing! haha. It's my new treasure and I will cherish it. Hugs girlie!!
Oh what a beautiful quilt Melissa, so full of meaning and what fun to snuggle up under it and just daydream! I"m glad yr New Year's was nice, I was alone here but I spent a nice Christmas with my sister and a good friend and her husband and husband' family and grown children and friends we had since we were 5 years old, she now has redecorated her house beautifully, sending big hugs!
that quilt might be the greatest thing i have ever seen. seriously! your mom's clothes... i just love that. that blanket it like a big hug from your mom. pookie punkie is awesome.
WOW that is THE MOST AWESOME GIFT! Your sister did a fantastic job!!! We have more snow than you here in MI! Its cold! Glad your son made it back safe, though it was a long ride. Yay for James being back to work, a job is a blessing this day! Burgers sounds good! TJ and I had leftovers since Solomon has school tonight. Good to see you and will be looking forward to your next video. HUGS xo
@SugarInHisBlood Steve our snow is almost gone! Woot! The quilt is so wonderful and it was such a surprise. It is like getting hugged from mom... After all these years. Hugs!
Very beautiful quilt filled with meaning. And what a wonderful idea that you can wrap yourself up with it and have it be like your mom giving you a hug.
@LesliMademoiselle Lesli, I wish you did have a quilt made of your Dad's things... I know you would treasure it. My sister is just the best and she did a wonderful job making this for me. I'm coming over to sub. Hugs!
Wow, what a beautiful quilt! So much meaning in it. A treasure for sure! My family has the tradition of eating something green every new years too. We eat a cabbage soup with escarole and rib and pepperoni! Its called minestra.Yes, it represents money. :) Thanks for sharing the quilt with us!
@Fightdog Man that soups sounds so good Bob! We eat cabbage something every New Year's and though it means money.... it's not worked for us yet! HA! My sister is the best and she did a great job with the quilt. Hugs!
Glad everyone had a Great New Year. That Quilt is Beautiful, just priceless.. I would have cried too. Grandma use to make Quilts out of Flour sacks, Love them. Have a great week! ~Russ
@Rfritz09 Russ, thank you! The quilt means so much to me. People don't make quilts hardly anymore. Do you have any of your Grandma's quilts. What treasures they must be. Hugs!
That quilt would make me choke up too! I remember some of my Mom's clothing and it would be so wonderful to have a quilt like yours made out of her clothes, sadly I live overseas so I don't have any of her belongings :( Your sister is a gem, so much time and love went into making the quilt. Pretty snow, hope that it doesn't keep falling though.
@ArgentineShamrock Adriana, you're so sweet! The quilt is quite sentimental to me for sure. Sister did a great job! My sis is my best friend. Since our mom died so young and we were just kids it was just us against the world for a long time. Hugs!
@beberett Hey Lorette! I'm with you girl... we eat cabbage every year and have not got money yet! haha. Some years James hasn't worked a lick at nothing... No jobs! Thank God he got one December 2010! Hugs!
I love stuffed cabbage but I forgot how to make them. Go figure. That is a gorgeous quilt. Your mother was really young. My mom had just turned 45 when sh died and she died 1969.

@LesliMademoiselle Lesli, I wish you did have a quilt made of your Dad's things... I know you would treasure it. My sister is just the best and she did a wonderful job making this for me. I'm coming over to sub. Hugs!

Wow, what a beautiful quilt! So much meaning in it. A treasure for sure! My family has the tradition of eating something green every new years too. We eat a cabbage soup with escarole and rib and pepperoni! Its called minestra.Yes, it represents money. :) Thanks for sharing the quilt with us!

@Rfritz09 Russ, thank you! The quilt means so much to me. People don't make quilts hardly anymore. Do you have any of your Grandma's quilts. What treasures they must be. Hugs!

That quilt would make me choke up too! I remember some of my Mom's clothing and it would be so wonderful to have a quilt like yours made out of her clothes, sadly I live overseas so I don't have any of her belongings :( Your sister is a gem, so much time and love went into making the quilt. Pretty snow, hope that it doesn't keep falling though.

@ArgentineShamrock Adriana, you're so sweet! The quilt is quite sentimental to me for sure. Sister did a great job! My sis is my best friend. Since our mom died so young and we were just kids it was just us against the world for a long time. Hugs!
