    Amazing that we are going back and trying to replicate those wonderful quilts.

    They are a treasure. They did nice work on all of them.

    I used to have one top like the little squares one. it was damage, but I re- tore it to almost all her beauty now is in daughter possession she loves it. my friend got it from a mother's friend and my friend husband was looking for a rug to clean his grease hands , he sow the quilt and thought that was old and a ragged looking so with his sharp knife cut a peace in one corner . Imaginative her surprise !!! he is lucky that he still has his ears attach to his head and I'm lucky too.I end-up with the quilt to finish and enjoy it for a while

    I love the butterflies. It's nice to have things from the family's past. I have quilt my grandmother's older sister made. I love it.
