These are quilts that my great grand mother made and don't know how old she was my grandmother died when she was 90 so they have to be over a hundred years old. The flower one was made by my husband's great great grandmother it has a note on it telling of how it crossed the
river in a covered wagon. The blue one has stains on it, but I am afraid to wash it as it might fall apart and the stains on the other one is water stains it got crossing the river.. His mother died when she was 85 so it is very old also.

This one my hubby's great great grandmother made
