My great-grandmother was a quilter. So was my grandmother and her sisters.
Her son, my father, was not a quilter but he was artistic. My mother started piecing a quilt, her mother worked on it, and someday I hope to complete it.
A generational quilt is an amazing heirloom...maybe you and your daughter could work on finishing grandma's quilt together...what a journey for the quilt......
How wonderful to have a generational quilt. Aunt Esther and Aunt Bonnie both gave me quilts and I'm working on finishing them. I love thinking about the hands that have loved these quilts, the times gone before and think they will, probably, be hung on the hall wall when completed.

ReplyDeleteThe imperfections wherever they might be since I can not see any, make it so real. xox Corrine
ReplyDeleteIt feels like the tradition is continuing in your family. That's lovely!

ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful.
