Seeing an infant cuddled beneath a patched-with-love quilt stirs the emotions powerfully. During the Depression, mothers had to improvise and be creative. In turn, they quilted stunning baby bedding from spare scraps of material. In today’s economy, money saving parents are also drawn to this amazing gesture of love when preparing their nursery.
