Grandma's Artwork

I have a friend who likes to do artwork like this. You have described everything quite well in this entry.

The Quilts that so many Grandma's made are indeed works of art. Good luck in Sami's contest >> James

Hi Carolyn, As I may have told you, my great-grandma's quilts hold special memories to me, too. I remember as a young child running from my grandmother's work room gathering fabric scraps left over from her business projects and taking them to her mother who sat in a chair making quilts entirely by hand. When I grew up, I was amazed that she had included one BRIGHT ORANGE square in the middle of an otherwise pastel design...to the delight of a young girl...me! SMILES. Nice poem. Love --

my grandmother came from Durham in the uk famous for its patchwork quilts, so this brings back many memories. as usual what you write is both informative, and a pleasure to read thank you Carolyn. Harry

I have a quilt very much like this....made by my Grandmother. Aren't they the most wonderful treasures to keep...filled with a wealth of history...stories about each piece of fabric.... A lovely entry to the contest! ~ love, Carrie

Yes this quilt must have been an artwork of its own, Carolyn! I still have a crochet quilt from my mom. Each patch should tell you another history! Loved to read this write and thank you for your kind comments...Love, Gert
