    I have been cleaning out some storage bins, trying to find places to put my stash now that my mom is coming to visit and I opened up one bin and look what I found!

    My husband says that he thinks his grandma made this. It is sew entirely by hand!

    I don't know where or who this quilt is from, but it is made out of men's wool trouser material

    Don't know where this one came from either, it is just the top but all the birds are hand embrodiery
