It is wonderful that you have something so special in your posession that is also your passion. It's beautiful!

That is just wonderful. I have a quilt that I got from my Great Grandmother....don't even remember when. It is very ripped but I love that thing! I can't get over how yours is still together and nice. I just love old quilts, the one that Granny made me had all different kinds of material in it too. It's a basic 9 patch with small squares.

How fortunate you are to have something from your GG. I was born after both my grandmothers had died, so only know of them from stories. My dad's mother did make quilts, I heard, and also her mother before her. Use the quilt, gently, and label it if it is not labeled, so your family will know how precious it is.
