This picture was taken in the Spring of 1991 when my oldest daughter, Meagan, was just under 1 year old. The quilt she's sitting on was made by my wife's grandmother back in the 1930s or 1940s. An unusual pattern in the quilt which I've never seen before. The dress she's wearing was my wife's baby dress and was made in 1964 by her mother when she was expecting my wife, Melissa. So, indirectly, there are 4 generations represented in the photo.

I love these generational things! I love the design.
I've never seen that one either.
Your daughter must be almost twenty,
and I bet she's still just as pretty! :D
