I would use either a gift deed or a general warranty deed, rather than a quit claim deed. However, a quit claim deed in favor of your mother will convey whatever rights you may have in the property to her.

Good luck!

Quit claim deeds are not recognized in Texas as providing an insurable interest, so please use a General Warranty Deed.
