A Quilt....

My Granny has always been very talented when it came to sewing. There are tons of pictures of me as a baby in handmade dresses and bonnets that she made for me. When I was a little girl, it seemed that she always had a quilt in her lap. As she has gotten older, she’s decided that she’s done quilting. I was fortunate enough to be given one of last quilts she’s made. She put it in my hope chest and I didn’t really have a chance to look at it until now. It’s just so special to me because it was made by my granny’s hands. It’s one of those things that I’ll look at 20 years from now and I’ll be closer to her because the same thing that I’m holding in my hands, she made with love years before.
