I'm sure your mom is extremely proud of your accomplishments and watching over you now. <br /><br />I have two thoughts about the PS year. One would be to simply pop them in and out of a single frame ( then you can use the rest for other finishes) and display during the appropriate month. The other would be to have them quilted into a wall hanging so all can be seen together as she chose to do. I think that would b a lovely reminder of your special mother. There are probably countless other options, but I'm sure you'll find the perfect choice for you!CalamityJrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04476593722594704013noreply@blogger.com
