My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to
make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of
snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep
warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids.
Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful.
Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

Day off
I have a day off and no where I need to go. This is not a lament. It is a joyful declaration. I will stay home and make something. There may be pictures. Maybe baking. Mike wants blueberry cheesecake bars. My Katy in repose. 2005. MB
