Oh, so many memories! I don't remember NOT having a quilt on my bed. Both my grandmothers and my mother quilted, although with 7 children my mother didn't have room or time to quilt much at home. Every month the church ladies got together to quilt for charity. I remember playing on the floor under the quilts. At some point the older ladies started calling me to thread their needles because they couldn't see well enough. My mother taught me to sew. When I was very small I hand stitched doll clothes and quilts. When I was about 8 I made a quilt block for a pillow cover. I still have it. None of the points are pointed, but it's my first quilt block. I still have quilts my grandmothers made me. They are warm and full of love.
