These two quilts were made by my Mom and my hubbies Mom. His mom pieced them and mine quilted them. We are enjoying them now and will one day give each of our sons one of them. I hope I labelec these correctly in note.

I am having Karen make me two lables for them so the history will be there.

Those are so colorful & unique in themselves. Enjoy them & your sons will too. Glad you're getting the history on them too.

Allens Mom quilted with whatever she could fine. She had a room full of material and notions and all the good things that go with quilting. I wish I would have paid better attention then.

My Mom taught me how to quilt the way she quilted so I have a little knowledge buy by no means enough. I am almost done with the one for our great granddaughter and Karen made a lovely lable to put on it.
