Grandma B.

So I really need to get a picture of this. I guess you'll just have to go by my descriptions.

It was a large lap quilt. It was a diagnol pattern with white squares and blue squares with a lot of different kinds of birds on it. There was a white binding with a blue backing. It was an early birthday present for her.

I chose birds because my grandmother loves looking outside the window to see her birds. Most mornings, especially during the winter, she will take out the birdseed and then set on the front porch watching them come and go. When we were little she would tell us of the bird, Jenny Ren, who lived in the backyard in the house by the train tracks. And now, each spring, she sets and anxiously awaits the bluebird that lands in the tree outside of her window.
