I had a quilt my grandmother made mostly with drapery type material and tied it. We used it all the time and it wore out. I threw it out when I was young and foolish. I didn't known anything about quilting at the time and didn't appreciate it. I gave the afgan she crocheted for me to one of my sons years ago. He does still have it and does appreciate the rose patch pattern she did. She died in 1998 at the age of 97.
