Every loop in Mama's quilt told a legend. Each piece held a memory, clear as the day it occurred. As I snuggled beneath its warmth, Mama's voice would weave enchantment, bringing those memories to life. There were stories of kinship, of exploration, and even a few about mystery. With every patchwork section, Mama's voice would paint pictures in my thoughts, transporting me to another time.
