Wonderful vintage quilt. If it had been finished by the original maker, she would have done it just like that!! Great job, and I like the pink because it looks so originally vintage!!

I think the quilt is wonderful, it takes me back in time, I think the vintage quilts are my favorite for some reason.

Reminds me of a quilt my grandmother made that I slept under as a child in the 50's. It had that same pink and blue.

What a wonderful job you have done putting it all together. Looks fantastic...I am sure when it is done it will become one of your favourites.

Some if not all of these blocks are made with original feedsacks.
I recognize many from my own stash that belonged to my grandmothers (1900s). It is very pretty, full of history!
