A child’s quiltBy a Grandmother stitched
Full of love
In every thread
In every square
A child sleeps
A child grows
Wrapped in warmth
Wrapped in dreams
Wrapped in love
Worn with age
A tattered quilt
Gone its warmth
Gone its beauty
But the dreams
And the love
These do remain
To hold and share
The legacy of a child’s quilt
And a Grandmother’s care

Beautiful poem and Block.
I saw Susan yesterday and viewed the pictures from last week. Loved the quilt show. Hope you are having a good week.
Wow! I have warm fuzzies all over.
I loved those old quilts Grandma made for us all... they were so soft and comfy.
OMG Regina that is soooooo sweet!! You just gave me the BEST idea for one of my grandma's quilts that is way beyond repairing!
