    Wonderful heirlooms! I have a few of my grandmother's quilts but wish I at least had photos of the hundreds of others she made. No clue where they are, who has them, or if they still exist. But I do remember that she had a closet stacked from floor to ceiling with them and had several on each bed and some in a trunk. She gave many to her children and grandchildren. Located only a handful ):

    It says "Ballard & Ballard Co."
