Synopsis

From her nursing home, a grandmother teaches her two granddaughters how to quilt under the compassionate and watchful eye of their narrating mother. Jennifer, who has just graduated from college with a business degree and intends to be a millionaire by the age of 30, and her younger, shyer sister, Susan, who is studying to be a teacher, are both avid pupils.

Grama's simple lessons in basic quilting become something greater and more profound to these four women, stitching together the fabric of their lives. As Jen and Susan learn 12 crucial lessons in quilt making, they discover a formula for how to embroider their individual lives. As in life, in the ninth month comes fruition: Jen and Susan's quilts are completed, but so is their Grama's journey. One thing remains to be finished: the unique quilt Grama has been making secretly as a gift for their mother. When they examine all things their Grama left behind, both material and spiritual, they find her final lesson, the Golden Needle: do everything with love.
