I have several pillowcases from my past and many crocheted handkerchiefs. I wonder if I could combine the two and make a quilt like you did? I am sure it won't compare as you did a fantastic job but I would like to try to preserve these items. Looks great.

This quilt just makes me feel happy. I love it. It is one of my favorites that I've seen thus far on this board. I really appreciate that you used the hand quilted pillow cases. The quilt has such an antique, vintage vibe. It will no doubt live on through your family as a treasured heirloom. Wonderful job.

Beautiful, interesting and historical. Perfect for the GD who receives it!

What a great idea. This quilt is just beautiful. Nice hand quilting.
