Beautiful quilt & to extra special to get to know the history/particulars.

Do they take precautions to keep ppl from touching it? I wash my hands a lot before handling fabrics and aida cloth for cross stitch.
Thanks for the history on it, it really give it a place, a when, etc. The picture with the keys is great, too!

Absolutely gorgeous! Is that pattern Seven Sisters?

What a beautiful quilt thanks for sharing it Eddie. A quilt from the mid 1800's I love history and the Civil War era is one that I truely treasure. I have made period correct quilts from that era you are so lucky to have seem one up close.

Beautiful quilt. Imagine all time it took to cut and sew all that together by hand!!!
I think it might be pronounced "Halisco" I have seen a name or two where the Z had an H sound

It is stunning! Can you imagine the patience that went into that masterpiece? I would have been bored after the first few blocks! I'm so glad the quilt maker kept going!

That is beautiful! Look at those little tiny star points!
