Home Making

It's been a tradition for white (maybe ethnic people to but I haven't heard of it before) people to display quilts during a weddings. Back in the day it was to kind of show off all the quilts that the bride had made. Plus any that she had received as gifts. Well, for Wendy's wedding she only had one maybe two quilts. In order to live up to part of the tradition that has been set before me (and it just so happens I can be some credit for my homemaking skills in a few of my college courses), I have decided to make a quilt! I'm so excited! It is going to be a jean quilt. But the special touch will be that I am going to put some poems that I will be writing on the quilt. There will be around 7 poems. I hope that it turns out. It will have a lot of meaning for me and it will be a good family heirloom. I'll show you pictures soon. :)
