    Thank You. What a great and interesting experience. To think most of them were done by hand is amazing. Going back to read some more.

    My kids and I loved looking through the pictures of these historical quilts. Wonderful! We especially enjoyed zooming in on the crazy quilts and looking at the details.

    Thanks for posting!

    I really enjoyed this. It is so wonderful to almost imagine what the ladies looked like making these priceless pieces of history. To know they held it and worked the fabric, as only a quilter will, gives you a closeness to the past, that you don't really feel till you see where there hands have been. I know that the world is fast and times are changing at break neck speed, but when I see this, I think to myself..........Some of the best things in life, are passed down and cherished generation after generation. Just goes to show......the best things in life, really NEVER change at all.
