A quilt that my Grandma Edith made. It's not all that 'pretty' but the little squares of cloth were from clothes my sister and I had outgrown through the years. The brown paisley border was from a dress she once had, and the gray and green paisley was from one of my Dad's (her Son) shirts. (The quilt is folded in thirds; it's big enough for a twin bed.) It's fun to look at old photos and see ourselves in some of those original clothes. I know she also gave a lot of our outgrown clothing to, 'those poor little Mexican kids' that were part of the families that came to work in the fields in the rural Wisconsin county where she lived. Nothing ever went to waste in our family. ;)
Edith died in the mid-80's. The dogs on the computer screen (Lucy & Rufus) are also gone but never forgotten!
