Marsye and Sue finally got to the museum and delivered the quilt to Abraham Lincoln. He loved the quilt.

Abraham asked them if they could make a quilt with a flag. While Marsye and Sue was in the town they found some fabric to make another quilt for him before they returned home.

Abraham Lincoln was so proud of the quilt that he gave Marsey and Sue this old quilting frame. This frame was in the museum but he decided that it would make a nice gift.

Marsey and Sue set the frame out side under the oak tree. Ladies from town came to quilt. Mareey served her famous pie and lemon aid. They watched the children play.

To see the quilt easier you can click on control and the plus sign to make it bigger. What a cool quilt. To make your screen smaller hit the control and minus sign to make it smaller again.
