I forgot to include this very special gift on my birthday post. I had not taken a picture of it at the time. My Mama gave me this quilt for my 30th birthday. My Mama felt like I should have it for many reasons. It is so special to me because it was my Memaw's favorite quilt. It laid at the foot of her bed all the time, and it was laid over her casket at her funeral (she passed away on my 22nd birthday). I was given her name, Anna Louise, and we were so close. Especially the last few years before she passed away I felt we became close friends, not just grandmother and granddaughter. I will always cherish this quilt and the memories I have of her.
