I have been sewing for 42 yrs now - made clothes, cross-stitched for a long time. When the kids were in school and I was at home, a friend started a quilting group at her church. Last summer I pulled out a quilt that my aunt asked me to finish, and i've been working on stuff at home.

For me, it's an honor to finish the quilts that my aunt started all those years ago. My next quilt will be made from pieces that my grandmother cut out before she died. There is an honor beyond belief touching those same fabrics she so meticulously cut out over 65 years ago.
