How lovely for you, I wish I had something like that, made by my grandmother. I look forward to seeing the pics soon.

What a nice gift! Now on a more serious note......Can you pick out some winning lottery numbers for this Friday's MegaMillions jackpot? I'd like to be able to retire someday. :D

I know how you feel. My brother, gave me one that my little gma made.
He gave it to me, oh, about three months ago. She was probably in her eighties, and not seeing or getting around too well, but it is a treasure to me. :D

That means that they know the quilts go to a good home and to someone who appreciates their value. Congrats.

You ARE lucky. When I was growing up we had one quilt in our house. It was a little lap quilt my sis and I played with. It got used and washed so much that it wore out. My relatives are going to have a field day when I am gone. I can see them fighting over them now..........
