Bookroo's summary

An old woman dreams of her lost love, stitching memories into a quilt on her porch. As seasons change, her needle captures life's ebb and flow. When the quilt is complete, she embarks on a final journey, reuniting with her beloved in a dreamlike voyage beyond the moon. What stories does each stitch hold, and where will her dreams lead her?

From the publisher

It is a day in June, and the old woman is sitting on her porch with her cat. She has fallen asleep and is dreaming of her man, who was lost at sea. When she wakes up, the old woman is smiling. She goes to the quilt she is making and cuts new pieces of cloth. She is sewing her dream into the design. As the season turns and the moon waxes and wanes, the quilt grows beneath the old woman’s needle, recording life as it flows around her. When at last the quilt is complete, she sleeps and finally joins her man in his boat sailing past the moon.
