My grandmother's quilt

Recently I visited one of my mother's sisters. While there, she showed me a beautiful quilt that my grandmother had made many, many years ago. I wanted to share it with you.


Just look at all of the detail!

Her name was on the quilt in 2 places.


And a couple of dates were there too. Here is one of them.

Isn't that amazing!

Is there anything more beautiful than a hand made quilt? Yes, one that's made by your very own grandmother! Lovely work.
