I have five quilts my grandma made back in the 1930s. I rescue them from a cousin who valued my money more than he did family history or tradition. Some folks have their priorities all messed up; Grandmas Quilts Quilts are practical art. Carefully cut, precisely pieced together and hand sewn into designs of great beauty - Attic Windows, Card Tricks, Evening Star, Jacob’s Ladder, Old Maid’s Puzzle, Windmill - these lovely coverings keep families warm when Winter’s winds howl and rage. Quilts are family memoirs. Each block, indeed, each swatch of fabric evokes memories of family members and triggers stories of dear ones. Story follows story until a family history unfolds. Quilts warm bodies and hearts when they grow cold and lonely. Every stitch whispers fragrant warmth of love to those snuggled beneath these works of art.
