as you all loved seeing my grandma's quilts, I though I'd show you the three quilts we have that my great grandma made. She worked in a sewing mill so had access to a large amount of "scraps" (lucky!) and would make quilts out the wazoo! She would hand piece and quilt them but I believe she might have been part of a group in order to get all of them quilted as they are all queen sized quilts.
This one was made for my aunt who when recently redecorating her house decided it no longer when with the decor. It then became mine because if I didn't want it, she was going to take it to goodwill. But she recieved it when she was a teen

This one is a kind sized one and given to my mom on her wedding day. As she has a full sized bed, it is currently rolled up in a cedar chest where no one can see it :(

My mom got this one when she was a teen, and used it quite a lot. The white fabric is now frawing and I would like to fix it, but feel like I would ruin the quilt

this one is sadly unfinished and no one wants to finish it for fear of devaluing the quilt.

my great grandma on the the other side made this one for my grandma on her wedding day. It's 2 peices of heavy white cloth neatly hand quilted.
