    WOW What a treasure. All three are simply beautiful. Can't imagine how many hours it took her to hand piece all those little pieces.

    They are really nice - probably feedsacks plus dress & shirt fabrics. Finish them and treasure them. I would also put a label on them w/grandma & your names. Enjoy !

    My favorite is the 3rd one -- love the controlled crazy blocks. How wonderful you received these - while working on them you'll have wonderful memories of your grandmother, I'm sure!
