What a lucky day for you. I don't know the name of the block, but it is gorgeous and beautifully hand sewn. If you belong to a guild, take the quilts and ask their opinion. A LAQ might be able to tell you if she thinks they can be machine quilted and/or she might also be able to tell you if she knows someone who would hand quilt them, especially that gorgeous red & white quilt. When I lived in NH and belonged to a local quilt guild there, one of the women there actually sent her quilts to the Amish, who hand quilted her quilts for a reasonable fee. It might be worth checking it out.

Wow!!!!! They're beautiful, so glad that they have found a good home. If you can afford to find someone to hand quilt them, then that's what I would do. On the other hand, maybe you could learn to hand quilt and do them yourself.
