My mom's favorite quilt design was the double wedding ring. My personal favorite is the star with the embroidered umbrellas.
|
OMG! You've won a lottery!
|
They are all so beautiful. The Double Wedding ring is my favorite.
Looks like she liked to piece more than quilt. |
You certainly inherited some real treasures! Sounds like these are only part of the goodies. Congrats!
|
I love antique and vintage quilts.
|
That is quite the treasure trove! You have your work cut out for you to get them finished!
|
You are so lucky, nothing I like better than finishing up old quilt tops. Of course sometimes it could get overwhelming. Have fun
|
Oh, I would LOVE to have such treasures! You are very lucky indeed!
|
They are beautiful!
|
Oh make those quilts sing with quilting. What awesome tops.
|
WOW! What treasures!
|
Wow! That's a lot to inherit! You're a lucky woman. My fav is the purple one, second from last. Is it hand stitched?

I have no idea why she never finished them... she had SOOO many projects started... There are at least 50 quilts that are cut out, but none put together. I have put them all into zip lock bags, and one day I will go through them and see what there really is. I just put together what I thought "went" together!!!!
|
Fantastic treasures. I am so very happy for you. Enjoy them all!
|
Absolute treasures!
|
Lucky you the quilt room and all these lovely tops, have lots of fun finishing them.
|
WOW!!! What treasures, thanks for sharing!

wow....you have a lifetime of quilts there.....amazing!!! Have fun quilting them...you are so lucky!!!
|
You are very lucky indeed. I love the carpenter star one the best. Most of my quilting sisters will tell you it is because I generally like anything circular. They are really beautiful.
|
Love your vintage quilt tops. I buy them all the time and right now have about one dozen to fix. Went to a yard sale two weeks ago and bought two of them at $6.00 each and one was a Drunkard's Path. You have some beautiful quilt tops here, don't let them just sit in a drawer somewhere please.
|
WOW,:shock: You go girl.. :thumbup:
|
What fabulous work! You are very lucky to have these. Each one is a work of art. Thanks so much for sharing.
|
You must have a lot of fun in your sewing room! I love the purple one the next to last pic. What's the name - if you know. Thanks for sharing - have a great time quilting.
|
I love the ladies embroidered one.
|
Wow what a treasure, very beautiful tops .
|
Beautiful tops. I love the double wedding ring. Just think all those little pieces hand stitched together. It is a shame she never saw it finished. Good for you for taking it to finish it. Please let us see them when you finish them.
|
I like them all, please show us when it is flinched.
|
What a treasure trove you have!
|
You are truly blessed..what fabulous heirloom treasures...call on those quilt angels to help you.
|
What wonderful examples of piecing. Love them all. Have fun finishing them.
|
enjoy the stash
|
OMG what a wonderful inheritance from anyone to a quilter. Now that's the kind of treasure we would all like to inherit. Congrats and certainly enjoy finishing these lovely quilts and the others you have to put together. I think I am a weebit jealous ... well not the right words. I am mostly so excited for you. Enjoy enjoy enjoy!
|
I'm having trouble picking a favorite, but I think the dresden star wins on that one. They are all wonderful
|
Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
|
