Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Oh no. My mother and aunt weren't the ones in the debate. It was other family members but I never knew who.Originally Posted by jlm5419
I love to see stories like this. All to often these days people don't realize the amount of work and care that goes into quilts and therefore they are not valued. Clearly this quilt was valued, if the sisters fought over it enough that it was cut in half. It is also great to see that such great care was taken to restore it back together.
What a wonderful quilt and story, you ans sis did a grat job, you should be proud. Thanks for sharing.
learn each and every day,memories or play.

Its a lovely quilt though what a shame it had to go through so much trouble to get to where it is today. Thank you for sharing the quilt and its story. I feel sorry for your aunt who had to make that difficult decision those years ago. Congratulations to both you and your sister at doing such a good job putting both halves back together again. Best wishes,
