Oh, I love your Grandmother's blocks and what a treasure you will have when all finished! I have a quilt top that I have had since 1968 and keep doing a little bit on it. You have inspired me to keep working on it...

These beauties are crying out to be in a quilt aren't they:) Thanks for sharing them with us...they are so pretty. Look forward to seeing what you do with them.

There were a couple of quilt blocks that were almost done, so I finished them, now got them in a good soak because all old linens are a little yellow. I have 5 more to finish and will take it with me when we go to Mpls this weekend for Renessaince. Will show you all family picture when we get out outfits on.

LOL My grandmother did some of them and she passed on in 1969 so you know how old these blocks are. I am so thrilled to be able to finally have enough to finish a quilt top in her memory.

Very nostalgic :) I love the older looks.
