What She Left Behind
When Jason's grandma passed away two years ago, I inherited some of her UFOs (UnFinished Objects). This railroad quilt will be my father--in-law's Christmas Gift. I love lookng at the fabric - everything is old-fashioned and made from scraps. I love that since the dear never let anything to waste. I may even wrap this in a cereal box - like she used to! As I stitch in the ditch, I remember all the laughs we had shared and how much she loved us all. I bet Paul will be able to look at the fabric and remember a sister's dress or another project she had completed. I can spot some material used in a baby quilt I'll be presenting to Jason's neice born last week.
Grandma had given me some of the baby blocks she had made over the years and asked if I would finish this one for Justin's first born. Of course, the newest one is a blondie - like her cousins - so this quilt is perfect!
