I have a terrible time making scrap quilts, but am trying to take baby steps. Being too matchy-matchy limits me, but an unorganized scrappy makes me nervous to put together. I love everyone else's quilts when done, so will keep at it LOL Heaven only knows my scrap piles isn't getting any smaller!!!!

Can't comment on the quilt but the Gramma Sheehan sure rang a bell. I had one too.

OMG, that looks just like some fabulous vintage barkcloth curtain panels from which I made a jacket 20 years ago! I still LOVE barkcloth and should be thinking about remodeling that jacket so I can wear it again.

Your quilt is delightful!
