Childhood memories

Get Pushed Challenge #612
My partner challenged me to post a photo denoting a childhood memory.
This quilt was on my bed a lot of my childhood days. It was made by one of my grandmothers (probably Granny Allan). The two baby cups were always displayed. The one on the left (with a Beatrix Potter illustration) was a gift at the time of my birth. I'm not sure about the other cup. It has a poem on the back based on the first line of a Mother Goose nursery rhyme. The cookbook is one that I was given by Santa Claus. I only remember making one meal out of it, and I make it to this day. A hot tuna and cheese sandwich.

@dkbarnett Thank you for the challenge Delwyn. Not a lot of memories that I could create a photo from and I don't have a lot of old stuff from my family. But I did have these four things and it sure did bring back good memories.

[Susan Wakely]

Great memories and keepsakes. I would struggle with a challenge like this but have many photographs.

[Dawn]

Beautiful composition with so many memories. I had a quilt just like this but mine was pink squares instead of green!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It's a special collection and displayed so sweetly in your picture. Good job on meeting the challenge!

@randystreat I love what you have done for the challenge Kathy. Real treasures.

[Mary Siegle]

What wonderful treasures you've chosen for this shot! They're so nicely arranged, too. I love the cups! We had that cookbook also--with the same vintage of illustration. (They have updated versions also) The quilt makes a good backdrop for the other things and it looks like you've taken such good care of it. I'd say Mission well accomplished!

@mcsiegle Thank you Mary. I appreciate your feedback.
