Introduction by DesignerPatterns for seven heirloom baby quilts that are reminiscent of a gentler, less hurried time are included in this book. The quilts are designed in softer hues and have a vintage look and feel. These are the quilts that will be passed down from baby to baby's baby, They are almost too beautiful to use.
Personally, I think a quilt acquires the designation "heirloom" based on the complexity of the piecing and quilting. When a quilt includes an abundance of work, it should be appreciated enough to be taken care of. Then there is something left to pass on to the next generation.
I hope they will become their keepsakes one day in the future as reminders of my love.
