    That’s a lovely poem. It’s so sentimental and sweet. When I see an old quilt I always wonder about the maker. Makes me think of a newsperson a few years back who would randomly pick a phone number out of the white pages during visits to towns across the U.S. and do a story about that person. It proved the point that EVERYONE is interesting. I imagine every quilt has an interesting history also.

    Love the sweet poem! It makes me think of the Velveteen Rabbit with the toys that could talk to each other…

    when i was little girl, my mother made me a nice and soft and warm patch work quilt. When my duaghter was born, i made her the same one myself. they are pearl moments in life.

    I love this poem. I have a quilt my great grandmother made from scraps. I had my aunts and uncles each label and claim as many scraps as possible along with my great uncle. I have all of her old photo albums and I have gone through and put pictures with all the fabric scraps I can. 130 years worth! From her mother’s dresses, her father’s shirts, to kitchen curtains her mother helped her make for her first home in 1916. I would give up my transportation and go back to horse and buggy days before I gave up the quilt.
