I think my favorites are the alphabet one and the swirly one. I was told that the quilting pattern you see in a lot of these quilts is typical southern style. It goes in half swirls...i don't know if you can see it, but I thought I'd share.

Also the quilts with dates on them, are the actual dates they were made. One from 1909 and one from 1905...awesome.

Most of these quilts are in some state of degeneration, as you can see in some of the quilts, but I think theyre still beautiful! It just makes my jaw drop on the floor with the patience and beauty of some of these quilts!
