There use to be a furniture store in Belleville IL on East Main. Every year they gave out free cloth calendars. My mom had saved up 12 of them over the years. She once said, "I don't know what I'm gonna do with them", I suggested to her "Why don't you make a quilt out of them"? So she did. She was an avid quilt maker any way. Every winter she had a quilt in the frame. She later gave this quilt to me and it stayed on the shelf of our walk in closet for 15 years. Then one day thru the love of old tractors we ran into another couple. Her dad had been the owner of the furniture store that the calendars were from. When I showed the calendar to her she cried. Her parents were divorced when she was little. She had nothing from the store her dad had owned. Her husband later contacted me and wanted to know if I would sell the quilt and what I wanted for it? I checked with my mom and she said it was ok with her if I sold it. So we sold it to the husband and he gave it to her for a Christmas gift. She was overwhelmed by it and has it on a bed in the extra bedroom in their house. I feel it's where it belongs rather than sitting on the shelf in my closet. This is my mom's best project ever.
