I've noticed them more since I started quilting but I've always been interested in quilts since way back when I'd stay with my grandma. I wasn't very old when I started noticing the ones she had on her bed. I clearly remember the one that was a wool crazy quilt, I remember it being scratchy. I often wonder what happened to it.

If quilts could talk what stories they'd tell.

Of course! One of the main features in a movie I saw recently was quilts... "How To Make An American Quilt". Also, a bit of trivia for any Knight Rider fans--in "Halloween Knight", Bonnie has a Dresden Plate quilt in her apartment. ;-)

I saw that movie too, didn't it just make you mad when she was running outside and was dragging it on the ground!! UGH!! After all that work!!

ohhhhhhhhhhh yeah ..... especially little house on the prarie. many old quilts on there. alot of crochet too. thats actually how i starting " watching" for them :wink:

Yes! Just watched 'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers' last week and read that some of the dresses worn for that movie were made from homemade quilts. They were beautiful.

(Good movie too, by the way.)

Ditto on that, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is a great movie. I saw it years ago, perhaps it's time to see it again.

Oh the Waltons have a bunch in there shows more scrappy.

I wonder if I should start making a list of the movies I have seen with quilts in them. It would be interesting to see how many there are.

my frist time watching quilts was in cartoons like the bears, little red riden hood were grandma was sick in bed and grand ma was under quilt in bed ,then i used to love seen the clothes and beauitful puffy quilts in a movie called gone with the wind and aonther movie called how to make an american quilt those movies are very interesting love them

The Walton's have more beds and they have had several shows where quilts were the subject matter. I love watching Little House on the Prarie too. They have lots of quilts there also.
