Summary

"Families are like quilts ... lives pieced together stitched with smiles and tears, colored with memories and bound by love." Making a quilt-like planting a tree-is an act of love and faith and it demonstrates hope in the future. Leaving a lasting legacy to tie generations together with cords of love, quilts provide a tangible reminder so we won't be forgotten.
