Thank you.
Is this what you mean?
The first one was hand pieced by my grandmother... And she used man flour sacks in it.

This one was hand pieced by my great grandmother, when I took it to the quilter, she said it was some of the best stitches she had seen in her life. It's 90X90

This one was also hand pieced by my great granmother. It's a "Grandmothers' Garden" pattern. It too is 90X90

These are great! Makes me feel like such a slacker with my own decorating.

Thank you for sharing. It is all so beautiful. Just curious, when do you start decorating?

Since I don't celebrate Halloween, I like to start near the end of October... slowly bringing decorations out.
