This was made with some blocks my great grandma appliqued. She died in 1986 so I have no idea how old they are. You can tell from this mismatched ceters she wasn't much of a quilter, but I don't care. It looks nice in my bedroom and I like that she made the blocks.

It's precious, no matter how it is pieced. What a way to feel a connection with her every time you look at it. I LOVE IT!!!

Very pretty. I can only hope that any future grandchildren of mine would feel that way about the odds and ends that I leave behind.

I love your dresser scarf. A nice way to use the blocks. You get to see them every day and you get to remember your great grandmother.
