Some things will NEVER quilt out.
And that’s okay!
Some tops were never meant to be completed into tops, they were just something to occupy the maker’s time before things like internet and television and lives that are always go go go go go.
In the case of this top, pieced with fabrics from the 1950s-1960s –it is well loved and honored just as it is.
A testament to the work of a grandmother’s or great-grandmother’s love of needle, fabric and thread.
Sometimes magazine or newspaper patterns were NOT all that accurate.
Sometimes it has to do with not marking a seam allowance and eyeballing where to sew.
Lumpy and Bumpy happens…but if these pieces could talk! If the stitches could sing to us the song of a life time of caring for children, husband, family, grandchildren, what a story they would tell!
