Years ago,
when I was just a little girl
I remember my grandma sewing on a
{yo-yo quilt}
She'd work on it while she watched a Hallmark movie.
I have no idea how many countless hours she spent on it.
She never finished it...
it got put in the closet after some health issues caused her to not be able to sew anymore.
A few years later my sister had an idea for us girls to do together.
"Let's make a {yo-yo quilt}"
So we did...
we worked on it together while we watched movies...
The Waltons,
Anne of Green Gables,
Road to Avonlea,
Etc.
I have many memories working on that quilt together.
As life got busier,
the quilt kinda got put off.
As everyone started new chapters in life,
and went separate ways,
someone had to be given the unfinished quilt.
I, being the youngest, was given it.
I'm not much of a seamstress.
Matter of fact,
I don't sew.
I know how to,but I don't.
While I was staying with my grandma last week she dug out her old, unfinished
{yo-yo quilt}
Then she gave it to me.
She wanted me to finish it.
After some sewing today.
It's completed.
Her's and ours.
Together.
I'll think of my grandma and sisters often when I see this
{yo-yo quilt}
full of memories.
