    Hi, dltaylor. I see you are from Charleston, WV. I was raised there but now live in Red House, Putnam Co. I love your family tree quilt. You certainly did a fantastic job on the quilt, and quite a lot of work too. Thanks for showing us. That's a great idea to take to a family reunion.

    I had an older family member who also thought that taking pictures would steal part of her soul, a little bit with each picture. She would always turn her head when someone came in with a camera, and that was back in the time when you had to sit still for a moment for a good picture. Just good old Kodak moments.

    Wow that is tremendous. I agree what a tribute, and such a wonderful job you did too.

    Where did you find the fabric with the tree on it? This is incredible! Thanks for any help with tracking this down.
