Eighteen years ago, Terry Grahl, was pregnant with her fourth child. “Money was very tight.”Terry recalls. So when her mom called to ask if she'd like to go shopping at the local

fabric( 布料)store for the coming Christmas, she couldn't say no because she knew she badly needed some fabrics to make new clothes for her children. “1 remember walking around, gazing at all this beautiful fabric, wondering whether there is anything cheap that I could afford. And I could still get some money left to buy Christmas gifts for my family.”

Well, Terry's mom must have known what Terry was thinking. Smiling kindly, she whispered

to Terry, “You pick any fabrics you like. It's your Christmas gift from me.”Terry's eyes were filled with tears as the cart began to overflow with many fabrics, but not because Terry was planning on making herself a pretty dress or a pair of curtains for the kitchen. Rather, Terry's mom's kindness had inspired some holiday gift ideas in Terry, and it didn't take long

for Terry to figure out what she was going to do with all that fabric.

“I was going to make my first quilt.”She explains. “Every night I would work on this queen-size quilt. With every stitch(一针), I thought about all that my mom had done for me over the course of my childhood, during which we were always battling homelessness, but Mom somehow managed to fill our lives with love and make everything okay.”

On Christmas day, five days after her baby girl was born, Terry handed her mom a gift box. Inside was the quilt she had sewn, from the fabric her mother had given her as a gift.
