    I know you will enjoy every minute of quilting these beautys with all the memories that will reveal themselves. So glad they got passed to you so they would stay in the family. What treasures!

    Thank you for showing these quilt tops. I collect vintage quilt tops that are less than perfect so I really like to see tops from the same era. These are beautiful, I am sure you will treasure them.

    What a great treat...after my mothers passing I found 3 quilts...1 my grandmother started, then she and my mother worked on and I finished. The other 2 were started by my mother and i completed those as well...what memories those quilts have...all 3 were done by hand..
