Description:

My Mother Wears Many Hats ... and Dresses Too is a special quilt for Lynette, as it was made as a tribute to her mom. The hats of the title refer to the fact that Lynette's mom took on many roles in her life, while the dresses are in reference to the individual outfits that the figures are wearing. Normally for a quilt like this, Lynette says you would try and get fabrics from the person it is being made for as a way to provide extra meaning as it would be a memory quilt. But for this one, Lynette chose fabrics that were significant to the moments in her mother's life rather than personal fabrics.
