another of gigamom's famous quilts
most of you know, gigamom quilts. she's made two quilts for me, and numerous ones for my cousins, and cousins' babies, and friends babies, and on and on.
picketts got one (and matching shams) for their wedding. chadalan got one for maddilynn. zan got one for acadia, the boneses got one for their wedding AND one for evan. cousin jeff got one for lucy. and now, geoff and lorie have one for david (who is due any day).
let me tell you, it's weird walking into someone else's home and seeing something your mom made. but it's pretty cool, too. thankfully, she's not a grandmother and great-grandmother (yet) like her friends, who have had to crank out seemingly thousands of baby quilts in the last couple years.
i loved listening to kelly talk about turning the quilt over and finding the hidden butterfly (a signature my mom puts on every quilt she's made since 2000).
i do know how to sew. it's something i learned out of necessity, and partly from my mom. but, the patience for even machine quilting is something i do not yet possess.
