Anna outgrew the dress and her mother decided to incorporate it and the babushka into a quilt. Anna's mother used items from other family members to create a quilt that would be passed down from generation to generation. This quilt was used as a Sabbath tablecloth, a wedding canopy, and as a blanket to welcome each new child into the world. This quilt ties together the lives of four generations of an immigrant Jewish family and remains a symbol of their enduring faith and love. |
