I can tell how much it means to you to have you Grannies quilt. Is the front feed sacks too?

Please think about labeling your grandma's quilt so her legacy isn't lost.

I agree: It is sooo important to place the labels: I never thought so when I first started quilting but now I always look back and say Well, when did I make that one??? Now I always Label:

Some are sugar and flour sacks, some were old clothes.
