Those quilts are GORGEOUS!!! You are so lucky to have them!
My grandma made me the doll quilt when I was a little girl - some 50 years ago - and I still have it. That quilt is my first memory of my bed.
I also have a small butterfly quilt that she made. She had pieced together about 12 blocks before she died but didn't finish it. My aunt took her butterfly pieces and made a small quilt out of them and I have it now too.
I also have a crazy quilt comforter that is made mostly from material my mom used to make my clothes. I was in college before I owned a piece of store bought clothes. My grandma made a comforter out of the material scrapes after my mom made my clothes. It is so much fun to look at it and think about the clothes I wore as a young adolescent.
I have about 10 different quilts that my grandma or my mom have made. They are so beautiful, I love them so much.
Your quilts are precious. It is a dying art. Most quilts are machine stitched now. Our grandmothers stitched most of their quilts by hand. The women in my tiny little hometown still have a quilt set up at the community center and they quilt on it when they come in. When they finish one, someone else brings in another to be quilted. It is so cool!
Thanks for the memories!!!
