My Grandmother quilted and I ended up with about14 quilts, one that she did along with her sister in the late 1800's, but I did a terrible thing when I was young and just married. I had no interest in old quilts, just taking up space, so I sold them, all of them for $700, kept one. Just last year I started thinking about what I had done getting rid of all those beautiful quilts and thought maybe I can do this, I remembered sitting and watching my Grandmother hand piece. So I went online got some basic instructions, found a pattern called Granny's Flower Garden, bought some fabric and off I went on my quilting. In the past 10 months I have made 7 lap quilts and I love it but not real good at it.
