Perfect Gift ~ The Rest of the Story

Some of you said that you wanted to know more about the perfect gift. The perfect gift was the quilt that my grandmothers had made. I absolutely loved it.

Later we discovered that my grandmothers kept journals and they had landed in a genealogical library where we could go and read them and get copies.

They had written about where each piece of cloth they had used had come from and told stories about favorite dresses, shirts, blankets and such that had be repurposed into the yoyo quilt.  I learned so much about my family history. Now the gift is even more perfect!

  1. My mother started quilting about 25 years ago and has provided each of us with a special quilt. Good for you, both for keeping and cherishing that quilt, but of course also sharing!
