A friends mother would quilt all the tops my friend could sew together.(by hand) Mother quit driving when she was 102 and died when 104. Went to hosp with gallbladder attack and they over medicated her. She stayed with my friend one time when her house was destroyed by earthquake. She made 4 grandmothers flowergarden quilt tops by hand while she was here and crocheted I don't know how many baby things. I think she was here about 4 months while her house was being rebuilt. I only want to get that age if I can still read, quilt, make dolls......... That quilt is beautiful!!!

Hat's off to the lady.
