    Default 2 quilts headed to great-great-grandchildren

    My Grandmother made these 2 quilts prior to the 1960's. They are now being sent to her great-great- granddaughters. A dear friend made labels to indicate who made the quilts and her life span. Thanks for looking.

    What treasures you have created from the past! I hope your great grands will appreciate them as they grow up. The colors are so reminiscent of earlier days in quilting. Love them!

    These are reallly nice. The label was a great idea. I'm sure the great, great grands will cherish them.
