Every stitch in Mama's quilt told a story. Each square held a memory, clear as the day it happened. As I lay beneath its warmth, Mama's voice would weave wonder, 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 place.
