Following the death of my mother, I was asked by my family to make a quilt to remind us of her. Her favorite color was red. She loved water and said that she would have become a marine biologist had she been born later. She was from California and would bask in sunshine. She was a quilter and had a bulletin board with favorite illustrations, quilt photographs, etc., to help her design her quilts. I took one of the illustrations (by Jan Stamm) from her collection and turned it into this quilt. The hearts are for the love she lavished on all of us. I miss her.
