I wish I had something left to me like that. All I got from my Grandmother was a rolling pin.

That is wonderful that you could finish it. Well made quilt! Glad someone is doing it that can finish it with the same quality the block maker used. Will it be finished with hand quilting?

You go!!! I also made a quilt out of pieces that my grandmother cut out. I never knew the woman, and my mom was only 7 when Gma passed away. I consider it a true honor to have finished this project that she started. My mom is now blessed w/ the quilt and what an honor she must feel knowing her mother cut the pieces out and her daughter created something out of it.

Document the history so that down the road someone will know!!
