What an heirloom. We recently found a 1930's quilt that belongs in my hubby's family. Still trying to get the history of it. Hope you know yours.

Thats wonderful that he has this from his family - perhaps someone (elder aunt, cousin, etc) might recall something about the quilt - {lease post pics of it - we'd all love to see it.

all I know about this one is what was been passed on to me by a late aunt. My mom never mentioned anything about her history.

Have a great week end

Thanks so much - My camera doesn't really do that good on showing stitches on "white on white", but looks pretty much like the blank white places on the front.

Have a great week end

It is beautiful and in such good shape. I hope you will use it, as grandma wouldn't have wanted to waste her time for something to sit in a closet. ENjoy!
