    You have a very special treasure. As far as I'm concerned, it's priceless. Label it and take very good care of it.

    Don't you just love this old quilt? I have some my grandmother made that still have printing on some of the background pieces. Makes them all the more precious.

    I love the stories with quilts. Apart from the beauty of quilts themselves it is the stories that add to that beauty for me.
