Now quilts, like may things, vary from culture to culture. Patterns are simply descovered and made populer in different areas around the world. That of course, hasn't ever stopped Elvira from learning them. So for Goldie, she does something special. She took the French Braid Quilt block and the Irish Cross Quilt block and she brought them together in a single pattern. With blues, golds, and silvers she made a complex harmony, unique as it was beautiful. - Elvira
It has been a long time since Goldie was as touched by a gift from someone other than Scrooge as much as she was by this. It echoed heritage and the reputation of things that went along with them, such as the Irish temper she carried, but more than that, it represented her parents who had not lived such long lives as Elvira. The elder duck reminded her of them at times, but this… this was an object made with care, that not only reminded, but provided something she could hold, and bundle up in at any time.
She cannot resist doing just that, within seconds after unfolding the gift, burrowing until her silver feathers were all that remained visible. For a moment, she vaguely recalled how it once felt to be a child bundled safely in bed at home, and she treasured it.
Elvira will receive a very strong hug in the near future.
