Aunt Joyce found a quilt top in a box she was cleaning out. She thinks Nana made it, but isn’t sure. She wants to give it to a great grandchild expected later this year. Twins actually, but this will be for one of them when they move into a big bed in a few years. That time lag will give her enough time to lose it in another box.
