Mariel's Quilt

Finally, a place for Mariel's quilt! Great Grandma (Oma Osterbur) finished this quilt that was started by Mariel's Great-Great Grandma, Oma (Emma) Suits (whom Mariel is named after). Oma Suits made a pink quilt and a blue quilt... I think she secretly knew that Mariel and Nolan (Mariel's sixth cousin) would be born boy and girl. So now they both have a little piece of Oma in their lives...and the quilt will be a quilt that Mariel can proudly say has touched the hands of 5 generations of women. I think that's a beautiful and powerful statement.

The quilt has pink squares with various patterns and on the back are little pink teddy bears. I want Mariel to enjoy this her whole life, so I'm hanging it for now until she's older. Formula and baby drool aren't nearly as beautiful as this quilt is!
