Welcome to my A to Z Inspirational Word Journey for the month of April. Naturally, there will be a picture quote and music. 

I invite you to join me daily as I explore a word that inspires me and speaks to me in some way, shape, or form. 

See the whole list of bloggers HERE

Why would quilt be a inspiring word? Because seriously, the amount of work and love that goes into a quilt is unbelievable. I know, I made one once a long time ago. It wasn't the intricate, amazing, over the top kind that are made by so many talented people these days.

I have a number of wall quilts including one my Nana made when she was pregnant with one of her kids. (At least that's what I've been told.)

I have the quilt I got for Peter before he was born.

I have a beautiful one I got for my 40th birthday in Hawaii.

I read the entire Elm Creek Quilt series by Jennifer Chiaverini over a summer and I swear to you, that is part of how TGHR came to be. If ONLY I had an old mansion that someone I loved was living in and willing to let be converted to a retreat house. ::: sigh :::

We had the sweetest taste of spring this weekend. Today, it is rainy and gray. Cuddle up under a quilt. It will warm your soul.

My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue
An everlasting vision of the everchanging view
A wondrous woven magic in bits of blue and gold
A tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold
