The elegant lady who pieced the top that Pat Sinople quilted.
She had a beautiful voice and a sad life, in my opinion. When we were sick, she would read to us. She read the entire book, Gone with the Wind to Mother when she was sick.
She did not talk much. She was married to a widow with six children and he divorced her saying ” she was mean”. I have read that divorce decree so this is not hearsay.
She lived with her sister, my grandmother the rest of her life helping raise the children. She cooked a lot…always had a pot of tomato soup ready to serve before lunch and dinner or dinner and supper.
She had asthma and coughed a lot. I do not remember her laughing, therefore I assumed she was sad.
She might have been very happy. I really do not know . I hope so.
Thank you for your comment, reminding me not to judge. She was a giver . For that insight, thank you.
Such a gorgeous quilt!!!
Reading that thick novel to someone … that’s quite the undertaking!

I hope she didn’t see her life as sad. She was certainly a giver.
