silk quilt
I was wandering around my parents' bedroom while on the phone with EP, and discovered a folded up quilt, the edges of which looked intriguing. Pinned to the back of the quilt is a note in my grandmother's handwriting:
Very old silk quilt. Made in 1800s. Given to [my great-grandmother] by elderly lady in 1940s.
Of course, I had to open it up and inspect. I'm in love.
