    What a family legacy you possess!! They're all wonderful, but I'm intrigued by the tie quilt!! Can't wait to see a full picture and any measurements that you can give, such as how much of the tie did she use. Hand stitched or machine, etc.

    Wow, you really have beautiful quilts as heirlooms. I especially like the tie quilt your mother made, it is really pretty.

    Another Okie. YEAH!!! Your quilts are amazing! Just gorgeous. You are very fortunate to have them so you can admire them often. Such sentimental value there!!! Your quilt Chest is beautiful as well. I know you must be so proud of these beauties. Wouldn't it be grand if these older quilts could talk & tell about the process of it being made or about the maker? I have always thought that. Thank You for sharing.

    Those are all beautiful quilts, but the necktie quilt is absolutely gorgeous, like WANNABEE, I'd like to see the whole quilt if possible, I'll bet it's stunning.
