Did you use these quilts when she was a baby? Did you like them? Did you not like them? Did you have a problem using them because they didn't have any batting? Without batting they were probably called "warm weather quilts" as opposed to "buntings" or "cold weather" quilts which were used to wrap the baby in to take outside when the weather was cold. The quilts I used inside the house were "warm weather quilts" and were totally different from the quilts that I wrapped the babies in when I took them outside the house in cold winter weather. In the summer, I didn't use quilts at all but very pretty hand made baby sheets that were cooler than traditional receiving blankets. I don't know if babies and mommys have such an extensive wardrobe of quilts, sheets and blankets today and as we used to have"in the old days."
