another one from northern california welcomes you. would love to see pictures of your quilts. what a wonderful gift. you are a very lucky person. I inherieted three finished from a great great aunt and one unfinished top from my great grandmother. my grandmother gave it to me to put a back on and quilt but have been afraid to tackle it. Is there a problem using modern quilt fabric with the old? This one is around sixty years old. What did you use to finish yours?
