Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful. I love the older quilts.

Adorable and how lucky were you to receive something like this from your GM. You did a great job on the quilting.

Looks JUST like one my Aunt hand-pieced in 1935 when she was 17. She gave it to me several years ago and I finished it, adding borders and hand quilting it. Later, I discovered a calendar with a quilt pictured with the name of the pattern: Hummingbird.
Here is my Aunt's version. Needless to say, I love both of them! |
Thanks

I am sure your grandmother is smiling down at you for you terrific job of hand-quilting her quilt. Enjoy it for many years to come.

Wow. Just WOW!
And now I am officially jealous. Thanks for sharing ~ Pat |
That is so sweet.......

It is wonderful, and I think you did a great job. I have a hand pieced quilt top that my Grandmother, who died before I was born, made. Even some of the tiny squares are pieced together. I need to hand quilt it, but my hand quilting is not great at all. You have inspired me. perhaps I will tackle it.

Beautiful job by two talented ladies! What a treasure!

Very beautiful, your grandmother would have been so proud of you for finishing her quilt.
