Description
A moving and inspiring text takes us on a journey through the work that, generation after generation, has been done by each and every woman in this family.
Mothers, grandmothers, sisters, aunts, daughters, nieces, cousins and granddaughters. Generation after generation, all of them have maintained a beautiful tradition: to leave their essence embroidered on a beautiful quilt, giving rise to a valuable and unique fabric, forged from love and memories.
Women so different and yet so united that together they have created a wonderful family. But can it stay that way? Who will now be in charge of maintaining this special tradition?
A story about respect for traditions that celebrates the family as the fundamental cornerstone of our lives.
But can this charming tradition be kept alive?
Let yourself be surprised by this wonderful story, skillfully woven by Desirée Acevedo and Víctor Jaubert.

I have a special family quilt, so I was interested when I read the title and description. This is a beautiful book that adult quilters will find especially enjoyable as will children. I really reading about the family history of their quilt and how it continued to pass down through the generations.

As a quilter, knitter, crocheter, (Also weaver and spinner), I thought this book was very sweet and well done.
The illustrations were beautiful and lovely, this would be a great gift for a little kid (maybe with a crafting kit!)
Nellie M, Reviewer
The Quilt of Our Memories is about a family who has passed a quilt down through the female members, adding squares as they go. What will happen when they get to a generation that only has a male? I love the idea of continuing traditions as families change. The artwork in the book is very unique and soft. My kids enjoyed this story as we only have boys in our immediate family.
Thanks to Cuento de Luz and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
