I love this! I'm going to have to steal this quote and use it for myself!
I always thought my grandmother was a super-hero style quilter; perfect in every way. Then I became a quilter myself and really examined her quilts and realized she's just as human as I am.
And I think I love her quilts even MORE, now, mismatched seams and all, partially BECAUSE they aren't perfect. I still sleep under the quilt she gave me when I turned 18, and the smaller ones she made for me when I was younger are what I curl up under when I'm sick. Grandma's quilts STILL make me feel better! I wouldn't trade any of them, not even for the most lovely, award-winning quilt on the planet.
