Taft's First Heirloom of his Own

For Taft's Birthday, Mawmaw Elizabeth (Kyetra's mom) made him quilt. Mawmaw Geneva has quilted all her life as did her mother, and I remember watching and "helping" them when I was a child.

She hand sewed and hand embroidered this beautiful quilt for him. I love that all the blocks are different and that it shows that it was for his first birthday.

We are lucky to have many items that belonged to loved ones in our family and they will one day be pasted from us to Taft. Now with this quilt, he will be able to pass it on to his future family.

Just a few pics of the different blocks on the quilt.
