    Default OK, So I told my Mom about the quilting event I went to..
    I know this really should be "outside" the Vintage and Antique Machine area but if goes there, I will never see it again so... mea culpa.

    I mentioned the TOGA event I just went to with Heather and DD in tow and The conversation took off from there. She reminded me that i had been sent some pics of her quilts but back then "you didn't seem to care much" (bad steve...) I admitted that she was correct (better) and so she kindly sent these to me (shrunk for dial up politeness)

    (OH, I almost forgot.. WHY DON'T THEY BELONG HERE??? you ask.... because they are all Hand sewn ....) So forgive a proud son a few bytes of space...

    Your mother is an amazing quilter. All hand sewn. Unbelievable!

    They all pass the "vintage" / "stand the test of time" test. Beautifully done.

    yup - can't get any more "true to vintage" than hand sewing! Very beautiful quilts.

    Really like the last one with the purple and green logs. I wonder where I could get a pattern or did she make her own?
