My grandma was a quilter as well as dang near every other craft you can think of. She used to make some really unusual "art" from beer cans, she crafted really intricate scenes into ostrich eggs & decorated the outside with elaborate details and so many other things that I'm just now remembering (so thank you for the fantastic remembrances ). She was always working on some kind of project whenever I'd visit as a child.
My grandma made little diorama scenes in eggs too. She taught me to sew, and pretty much raised me. She's been gone 4 years and some days I still want to pick up the phone to ask her a sewing question or tell her about fabric I found or a new quilt I'm starting, or just stop by her house to show her my pretty's. She'd be proud!
