We always had a variety of quilts in the house. The first quilt I remember as mine, I was pribably about 6 it was a Dutch doll (now called sun bonnet sue) little floral dressands asked in blue and it was tied with yarn. I'm pretty sure my maternal grandmother made it. I also remember making scrap quilts from fabric sample books cutting the card board off and sewing them together. Mom was an acomplished seamstress that made drapes, bed spreads and slip covers for a living so we always had outdated sample books to play with. I also made arbie cloths and blankets from those books.
