GrannieAnnie, I love that poem. It expresses exactly how I feel. I am going to borrow it to put in my baby niece's quilt, to make sure it doesn't get used for a wall hanging or shelved because "it's special." I made a lap quilt once for my mom (15 years ago) and she has never used it or displayed it because she is from the generation that keeps "the keepsakes" sealed up in a closet. Makes me sad.
