The name of my blog started with a quilt I made in 2009 that I named If These Threads Could Talk

This crazy quilt is made of Dupioni silk and has my family tree embroidered on it.  My grandparents names are embroidered on the top border.  They had 5 children whose names and birthdays of them and their spouses are embroidered in the first row of blocks.  Below them their children’s names and birthdays are embroidered.  Great Grandparents information is embroidered down the side borders.  My kids may not want to listen to me talk about family history but I know they won’t throw out a quilt.  Someday they will be glad they have access to this information.
