The Keeping Quilt

When Xiao Anna left her hometown, she only brought a dress and a headscarf. When she grew up, her mother decided to add this dress and headscarf, plus many relatives' old clothes, and invited neighbors to work together to sew a patchwork quilt so that everyone would remember their hometown forever. Therefore, this patchwork quilt made with the power of everyone is not only a tablecloth for birthday parties, a awning for weddings, but also a wrapper for welcoming newborn babies into the world... it has been passed down from generation to generation in the family. Bringing personal experience and real people around to the stage of the picture book is one of the characteristics of Polakko's work, in the book Heirloom Quilt. [Based on the Foreign Translation]
