What an awesome privilege to be keeper of the family quilts. I love them and love the displace case.
Where did you get the quilt cabinet you keep them in?

my Mother would be so happy.... this was her first quilt .... she sewed every tie on by hand all the embrodery work took her about 6 months to do .... she improved as she worked she did about 10 tie quilts in her last years one for each grandchild ... and gave me her original .... later today will lay it out on the floor and post pics of it and close ups of the edges .... think she is where I got my love for crazy quilting
