Quilt tops my grandma made 50+ years ago

I just received three hand pieced quilt tops made by my grandma--another family member is moving and ran across them. Thought you might enjoy them even thought they aren't done yet:o

What a treasure you have ... and thankfully your family member sent them your way, rather than all the other decisions that could have been made.
|
How wonderful to receive a treasure like this. I hope you finish them and display them proudly.
|
Treasures!

|
I like them all... but the first one is my favorite
|
These are wonderful quilts. You are so blessed to have them!
|
What a wonderful find! Enjoy "finishing" them :)
|
What a blessing these quilts are! They are all beautiful!
|
That 3rd one is mezmerisng. Are those middle squares a block of crazy quilting? WOW... Love them all. I had a blessing like that once. I got two hand pieced tops and 17 blocks my great granny made the year I started making quilts. Which was decades after she had passed away.
God keeps good secrets! |
They are just beautiful, great job and thank you for sharing, what a treasure.
Have a Blessed day Ellen |

They are priceless. Number three is my favorite, although I like them all. Finish them, then enjoy them.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]344437[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]344438[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]344439[/ATTACH] Do you recognize any of the fabrics as scraps from clothing Grandma, Mom or even you wore? That's one of the fun things about old quilts, IMO! |

Oh SO beautiful!! Are you going to get to finish them?
