"A quilt is an object of peculiar intimacy. By the virtue of the way it's created, every inch of the fabric is touched. Each scrap absorbs the quilter's scent & the invisible oils of her skin, the smell of her household and thanks to the constant pinning & stitching, her blood in the tiniest of quantities. And tears, though she might be loath to admit." ~ excerpt from The Goodbye Quilt by Susan Wiggs
