What an honor to have those quilts!

Just think about what our great grandmothers had to do to produce a quilt in the old days. If I had to go to all that trouble without the help of a fancy sewing machine, quarter inch quilting foot, rotary cutters, pre-shrunk batting, disappearing markers, good lighting, etc., I'd probably never even try. Those women really had to work hard just to turn out one quilt. Cherish those quilts girl--they are so special!

Thanks for sharing, Mary
