After a roundabout back and forth between my DH and his ex, we finally got this quilt back. His grandmother made it for him for his 21st b'day. (He is now 60...so you can figure about how old it is.) She pieced and quilted the whole thing by hand.


Sorry...camera died before I got a pic of the back. We hung it at the church to take pix, and left it there for people to see.

Thank you all. I am kind of afraid to use it....I would like to find a wall to hang it that would do it justice.

Some things are sooo precious to have and this quilt certainly is one of those

That pattern is, I think, Grandmother's Garden. How precious.

The Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt is very beautiful !!! I have always liked them, not enough courage to try one.

Bev 02-15-2010 08:56 AM
Imagine the time it took to make this one by hand. And yet I think the majority of G'mother's Flower Gardens WERE done completely by hand. What a treasure! Glad it's back where it rightfully belongs.
