with a family heirloom...and document being read by future generations quilter,...I know I would relish ANY information, down to, what may seem like trivial information...links to the past.
And that includes HOW LONG IT TOOK :roll: , I would want to know that if it was a slow process, that meant the original quilter was quite dedicated to getting it finished.
I love the idea about current events being added, while it was being made. I too, like to record stumbling blocks I had, and ways I overcame them, for next time.
Some notes about what the quilter was feeling/thinking about this quilt, while making it...their musings, what music they listened to while sewing...I love all that. :D
