    What a lovely family heirloom! It is beautiful for the lovely creation but most of all the love from generations past and present that has gone into making it. I am humbled by the message it carries and will carry for years to come. Well done on completing this lovely treasure.

    A label on the back giving this info is a must in my eyes!

    I put a label on the back, naming all the grandmothers and then my sister and myself along with a date. I just didn't take a photo of the back label.
