My cousin identified the brighter of the quilts as Saw Blades, and said it is usually paper pieced. The photo of the other one did not do it justice...terrible lighting in here.
THe pain comes from a combination of arthritis, nerve problems and hip and joint problems. I can do a limited amount of walking with the cane outside before I need to sit down, but boy, it got me yesterday, lol. A little too much outdoor walking, I guess, but really worth it. Next time I will take a pain pill before I try going out to yard sales.
