I have several antique quilts. One is a sampler top that my grandmother gave me one year for Christmas. I took it to a lady in a local Amish community to finish and make bed ready. That was when I was working and didn't think I would ever be interested in quilting. Wrong! I now have have blocks that she made but never set together. I'm in the process of finishing those. I have also purchased tops from antique shops and other place to finish. I do hand quilting so I don't know if I'll ever get them finished. I really like the look of hand quilting on the old quilts. (and also new quilts).
