    I only started in 2000 and did not inherit any, although I have a couple of things that were given my by strangers. My first and second quilts are not finished. The second was intended to be king sized and QAYG. I just finished one of the strips

    Funny you should ask! I'm quilting it right now! It's a bunch of 'orphans' from as far back as 1997 when I started quilting. I'll post it when I'm done. next oldest after that is a ohio start with ribbon from 2000..

    I guess mine is over 50 yrs old. I received a quilt top from my aunt for a wedding present. It had not been quilted. I kept it all these years (married 50 yrs last May)...separated the blocks from one another, as they were so ugly and looked so hodge podge, and have "intended" to put it back together with some sashing which I think will make it look great....and definitely an antique. My, my...I need to get on to this UFO!! time does fly!! :)
