Karla's grandmother lovingly pieced Mooshka together using scraps of fabric from members of Karla's family. Each square, or "schnitz," shares a special memory of Karla's ancestors and their lives. Mooshka speaks, comforting Karla at bedtime with whispered stories. When new baby sister Hannah arrives, Karla's routine is disrupted and Mooshka falls silent. Only when Karla shares Mooshka with her sister does the quilt begin to speak again and tell Hannah the treasured stories of her family.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The story of the quilt is true. I wrote these stories several years ago from a grandchild's perspective, but, they are about my mother. This series of books is to honor her memory. She had a faith filled home and taught our family how to live a simple, caring life with faith and love. She was recycling long before it was popular. She made her own garden, canned her food, made our clothes and her home goods. She was gentle, humble and she set an example of how we all should live.
