    Just stumbled across this fascinating link filled w/history & other interesting tidbits of many vintage & antique quilt blocks/patterns. So far have just scratched the surface looking at a couple of them - had no idea a version of the Log Cabin design was found on the wrappings of animal mummies in Egyptian tombs - who would've thought :shock:

    There are several subjects including the frugality of quilters gone by. :thumbup:

    Hope you enjoy it as much as I think I'm going to .

    Have a blessed day & may all your quilts be filled w/love. :lol: :thumbup:
