Annual Quilt Exhibit Ends Today

Joe Bob — Thu, 31 May 2012 15:45:29 +0000

I have always been amazed at the work that goes into making a quilt. My grandmother made several quilts, on her own and in conjunction with friends and quilting organizations. I learned from her what a time consuming process it was to make a proper quilt. Patience and love are a very large part of this process. Much patience and love are on display today at the Victoria Public Library.
