    They had so little but still managed to give back. A lesson for us all!

    WOW reminds me of my grandmother with her quilting frame.
    When not in use it had scraps of fabric that was used to hold
    it up (a couple inched below the ceiling).

    A reminder for me, as well. My grandmother had a frame suspended from the ceiling (when in use), and several relatives sat around the frame quilting. Often the stitches were different, as were the thread colors.
