Achancy...Dang...You go Girl!

Wow, Achancy. Good detective work. Brenda, I hope you find some more info. Makes you stop and think about those labels on the back doesn't it? How nice will it be 80 years from now when someone wants to ID one of our "antique" or "vintage" quilts and can find the maker's name and location on the back. Keep labeling those quilts friends! I have some of my great-grandmother's quilts from the 30s that I keep meaning to label so someone in the future knows who made them. There's no guarantee that they'll always be kept in the family.

Achancy...you are a dream come true !!!! Acalades to you, dear one.
|
Im thinking a youth group learning to quilt.
|
Beautiful quilt and please keep us updated with any new information about the quilt.
|
Achancy...you beat me to it! Good work. Shouldn't be hard to find family members now.
