My grandmother ZB would look at my hands and tell me I had Aunt Cassie’s hands. Her Aunt Cassie strong made quilts and she crocheted in linen thread. This quilt was made by Cassie. I found it in my mom’s linen closet and whisked it away to college - where it hung in my dorm room. The quilt is ready to journey!
