Mom was from Minnesota and they are WAY too heavy for where I live in Texas. The question is now what do I do with them? We have no children or anyone to pass them down to.
I would keep them and make the labels and put all info for them. Then display and enjoy them in your home until your ready to give them up. But I agree that they should be sent back to where your MIL was from and where they were maid to a Historical Soc. there. Or to the Quilt Museum in Paducah Ky.
They'really All Beautiful.
