Red is the Rainbow Scrap Challenge July color. I love red. Pictured are five 16-patch blocks, four string blocks, a happy house block, a 36-patch block and a RSC sampler block. To see what others made with red fabric, go here Saturday morning.
Last month Mother had an autonomic stroke. She had several strokes in the past, but this one was worse than the others. Hospice was called and Mother passed last week. Hospice was wonderful. They took good care of Mother and us.
Mother loved God. She loved everyone. She was at a point in her life that most of her friends and all her family, parents and 12 siblings, had passed. I imagine that she is in heaven, smiling, laughing and happy to see them again. I'll miss her.

Oh Sheila. I'm so sorry for your loss. I know you dedicated lots of your time to taking care of your Mom. There will be a huge gap there for a while. I like to think that my Chrissy is there in heaven, too. They would both make good angels.
Hugs

Sheila, I am so sorry for your loss, but glad you can be sure of seeing her again. There is nothing I can tell you to ease the pain. It's just going to take time.
I love red, too, and these blocks make me smile! I love each and every one of them. Isn't sewing marvelous therapy! I do not know how I would have survived without it.
