Quilt for childhood buddy
#16
Wonderful quilt. It calls out to you. We get to wrapped up in the latest and greatest sometimes that we forget all about simplicity. Simple functional quilts is what it's all about. Not that it's that simple but deceivingly makes you think it is. Thanks for posting.
Also, story behind the story. My friend’s grandma was a very religious, spiritual woman. She was also a Quilter. She said God called out to her to make a quilt for someone particular. For her, quilting was spiritual, and she prayed as she quilted. She’d knock on strangers’s doors and say, “I was told you need this. God Bless.” Recently, I told my friend I’d love to see some of her Grandma’s quilts and was surprised when my friend said, “I don’t have any.” Now, they had a very loving relationship, but I guess God didn’t tell Grandma Owens to make her granddaughter a quilt. So when my friend asked me to make her a quilt, I intuited she wanted a quilt to cuddle under. So simple was good.
