Illustrated by Tomie de Paola using pioneering American quilt design. A pioneer mother lovingly stitches a quilt for her daughter. The quilt becomes a bed cover, play environment, and comfort in time of illness or insecurity. Years later, it is lovingly repaired by another mother to fulfil the same roles for a new generation. As a symbol of continuity, the quilt effectively represents traditional family love and stability.
