Treasure this picture. I also have a picture of my grandmother, mother, and their neighbor quilting. The picture was taken in 1938. I put this picture in one of my memory quilts

I love it when people respect and treasure their photos.Thank you for sharing! Most of my memories were lost in a house fire that also took both parents.
