The Keeping Quilt

Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Half

(Paperback)-"We will make a quilt to help us always remember home," Anna's mother said. "It will be like heaving the family in backhome Russia dance around us at night. And so it was. From a basket of old clothes, Anna's babushka, Uncle Vladimir's shirt, Aunt Havalah's nightdress and an apron of Aunt Natasha's become The Keeping Quilt, passed along from mother to daughter for almost a century. For four generations the quilt is a Sabbath tablecloth, a wedding canopy, and a blanket that welcomes babies warmly into the world. In strongly moving pictures that are as heartwarming as they are real, patricia Polacco tells the story of her own family, and the quilt that remains a symbol of their enduring love and faith.

User Reviews for The Keeping Quilt

  1. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full Posted: Apr 10 2009

    I bought this book to give to my mother because I just made a memory quilt for her that included fabrics she had been collecting for over 58 years. I think it will be a wonderful tool to read to her grand children and her great grand children after sharing all of the different fabrics and their memories in the quilt. I really enjoyed reading this book about the fabric families are made of.

    I was lucky to find this book in Spanish, and it meets all of my expectations. The translation is true in style and content to the original and like the English version, is at about a third grade reading level.

  3. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty ( 1 of 1 found this review helpful ) Posted: Oct 5 2008

    This is truly a touching story about family and culture and change in the form of a Russian quilt that is passed down from mother to daughter for several generations, each generation changing slightly with a changing world. The art is lovely, black and white with only the quilt colored.
