Funny...I grew up with my grandmother's quilts; my whole family loves these quilts and we all cherish the ones we have now that she's gone.
But they're not real quilts at all, I'm told. She tied every single one. And her binding is just the backing fabric brought over to the front and stitched down. She didn't even miter any corners, just folded them flat and stitched them down.
Well, for not being real quilts, they sure feel like quilts to me. They work like quilts, they look like quilts, and I love them as quilts. So, I call them quilts, and people can tell me they aren't all day long but I will never change my mind about Grandma's quilts.
