I started getting interested in quilts when I got married 28 years ago (August 20th). When I was a newlywed, I didn't know how to do a lot of things let alone quilting. But soon enough I fell in love with the designs and the endless possibilities.
Quilts can provide endless opportunities for coziness. Quilts are wonderful piled on top of a hutch. They can also brighten up a room. People might think that quilts are only good for decorating in winter. But there can always be a place for quilts any time of the year.
The bed is the perfect place for quilts. But quilts can be used outside for a picnic, looking at the stars or even an outdoor wedding. Quilts can be set on a vintage wicker chair in the back porch and enjoy listening and watching the birds.
Whatever you decide to do with your quilts, it's okay because quilts are made to be used and loved. Just ask my sons, their quilts are very loved.
Oh, what a lovely and quaint post. How many have you made now, Irene? Are some of those pictured ones you've made? I am wondering if your boys used them as Superman capes, running through the house with them flapping behind them :)
