Sweet Martilla

 Sweet Grandma, Martilla

I just finished a Special Little Tribute to my Grandma Martilla Preator.

I remember as a small girl watching her sew for hours and hours.  I remember going to the church and sitting while she quilted with the other women in her small community.  I could see that she loved Sewing and was very particular and took pride in her Handiwork.

The Quilt she made me when I was born is one of my most prized possessions.

I designed this little Sewing Keep.

It has all the Necessities that she would have had with her as she Sewed.

Starting with Her Name at the top, I mounted an Olde Button and Pin String, Antique Scissors, a Counted Thread Sampler and a Wool Pin Keep!

I designed FOUR different Wool Pin Keeps so they can be changed with the Seasons!

I added a sprig of Sweet Annie because Grandma had an Amazing Garden too!

Love You Grandma!
