| Bravo! Bravo to your quilters! Those are gorgeous! I LOVE quilts. My granny taught me to make them and she always said "Make a quilt every winter and never be cold". Blessings, Teri

| Those are beautiful! My grandma made me and my sisters the sun bonnet girl quilts when we were little. Wish I had saved mine -- but they were on our beds for years! She sent me a quilt top a few years ago and I am ashamed to say it is still in my cedar chest unfinished. I need to get that out and put it together!

Those are Beautiful... I make quilts too, so much work. You are so lukcy, those Quilts will last a long time. Hand made Quilts are better than any blanket or throw that you can buy. I still have mine I made for my Wedding Anniversary 23yrs ago. It is still in great condition.

| We have several quilts that we use every day and most, are just displayed in our home.....since we have a log house, they look good everywhere! I still have a lot of mine from when I was younger too.....just love them...so warm and comfy! Quilting is such a wonderful hobby....just wish I had paid more attention to her lessons sooner! It may become a lost art before too long!
