There are times when I'll stop dead in my tracks when I realize just how much of my mom and grandma I have in me. Crafty in our own special ways, I find myself now appreciating AND DOING the things they once did. My grandmother, who we all know and love as Nana, quilted for as long as I can remember. She even had a group of ladies who would come over to her house just to quilt every week. I wish now that her sweet hands could still make things like these... I could definitely keep her busy with these inspiring pieces. ;) Or maybe this is just my next project. I don't exactly know how to sew...or have a sewing machine for that matter, but it's in the blood... so I have no doubts that I could get it done if I really tried. ;) Maybe one day.... Until then... I'll just admire other people's handiwork. :)
