I recieved this quilt for my 13th birthday. My grandma along with great aunts all put this together and worked hard on it. I dont like to use it much because I want to preserve it as long as possible and pass it down to my future daughter. There are some spots I will have to repair due to the stitching comming loose, but I love this thing!

Your quilt is beautiful and definitely something to treasure. The thought that you want to save it to pass down to the next generation is such a wonderful thing. The quilt will be cherished, as it already is!

My 2 sisters and I slept under a S.Sue quilt when we were growing up. It is practically in tatters now, but I have it at my house now and hope to duplicate it as closely as possible. My oldest sister was born in 1926, me in '37, and my youngest sis in '44. A friend made my granddaughter one for her baby shower. I just love Sue.
