So sweet what a wonderful treasure.

Grandma's are the greatest people in the world (you can see mine right there in my icon)!

I think the quilt is beautiful, and the more I look at those blocks the more design possibilities I see.

If someone wasnt there to tell her the colors matched she just threw things together. Any way here it is!
But isn't that what quilting is all about?!?! Spreading their love through quilting; I think it is wonderful because it was made by your grannie. Who knows what future generations will think of our handiwork :roll: Hopefully they will appreciate our quilts as they were meant to be; filled with love. It doesn't really matter whether colors match, coordinate, seams match; the love is there.

granof6 I totally agree, I dont always look at colors when I quilt. Sometimes I just sit the scrap box next to me and what ever I pull out I have to use. Its a little game I play, on a mission to make the ugliest quilt I think. Now if I could just get past having to have a pattern I might make it big in the art world! LOL

I think your quilt is perfect..your grannie sewed every piece with love. Can't make a quilt any nicer than that!!
