The Quilt

By Tiffany Thompson

My Grandma loved to quilt. It was her hobby and her passion. When I was growing up she would give quilts to us as birthday presents or Christmas presents.

Whenever we would visit my Grandma she was always working on a new quilt for someone, and her house had them hanging on every wall.

I eventually grew up, and had a family and baby of my own.

To my delight my grandmother came all the way from New York to visit me one day soon after my baby was born.

My Grandmother had not seen my baby yet and I was excited for them to meet.

Then my Grandma brought out a beautiful baby quilt and gave it to my daughter. Her first quilt! I was excited that my child would get to share the love and comfort I had from my Grandma's quilts growing up.
