Christmas = Quilts!
Besides being a genealogy lover; I am also a
lover of quilts. I have been sewing since I was a little girl and my mother
& her mother taught me the basics. They were both very talented and could
make anything with a needle and thread. As I grew I learned more and more about
sewing by hand & by machine. When we were first married we lived in the
Buffalo, NY area and I was introduced to quilts. As soon as I saw the beautiful
colors & textures I wanted to try sewing them myself. I took lessons and
the more I learned about quilting, the more I wanted to quilt.
Since
then I have given many quilted gifts to friends & family, especially at
Christmas time. This year I am making a quilt for my husband & myself. It
won’t be done in time for December 25th but there is no hurry in
making a quilt. The time that goes into the creation of a quilt is a part of
its value.
