Cousin Tiavalya, Thank you for continuing to shine the light on figures of black history through your gift of quilting! Great job! 😊❤

My Grandma made me a quilt when I was in college. She had a stroke before she could mail it to me. When I came home it was still in a box. I will have it for the rest of my life ❣️ I made sure I'm laid and wrapped my daughter in it when she was younger...🙏🏽 rest in peace Grandma...I miss you so much. 🥲
