This afternoon my mom brought over 3 old quilts that my grandma made and they need repaired. My grandma died a day after I was born as she lived long enough to know that she had a granddaughter. I am now 54 years old, so you can figure how old the quilts are so now I need to find some old fabrics.

My dad is now 81 years old and was his mom that made these quilts.

Thanks for the lead. I'm thinking about repairing a lot of my mother's old quilts and appreciate the information.
