Willow Tree - Generations Midwest the nine days leading up

the nine days leading up to Christmas… a celebration and announcement of the birth of Christ

Willow Tree - Generations Midwest the nine days leading upMaking memories that last lifetimes I learned to sew from my mother, and she learned from her mother and aunt. I wanted this piece to not only depict the process of learning, sharing and making, but also the creating of memories that are passed down with love through generations. I hope it resonates with anyone who has lovingly carried on any special tradition within her family." Susan Lordi A gift to celebrate new beginnings, new babies, new families
