Hi,
I think it would be cool to see antique quilts, so please post your pictures here so we can all enjoy.
I will get a photo of the one that my Grandma made as I finally got to see it in December. My parents has it and never had shown it to me. Also my grandma lived 3 hours after I was born to know that she had a new granddaughter. So sad!

This is a quilt my grandmother made. My mother has had it as long as I can remember. It's one of the few that I've seen of Grandma's that was not scrappy so she must have made it for a special occasion. Mom's memory is shot but it was probably a wedding gift for Mom and Dad's wedding in 1946.

Beautiful quilts. Alas, I know of no one in my family that ever quilted before I did. I do not own any quilt treasures, nor have I had the fortune/money to buy one either. I will just have to enjoy looking at what you all have to share!!
