Your fingers trace the fabric—cotton prints faded soft, seams pressed flat by decades of use. Margie's needle work is still visible in the tiny stitches holding each square to its neighbors. Mabel smiles as she lifts one square to the light, remembering the grandmother who made something beautiful from scraps that might have been thrown away.
