Oh, how neat that is. Imagine, after all that time, it finally is a showpiece.

Just lovely! What a wonderful keepsake for the generations to come. When I look at those blocks, I realize they are as old as I am..................Only they look a lot better (smile). Thanks for sharing.

Eddie, this is a reminder how how far the women of today have come from 1935. Back then, when a woman married, most school boards deemed that a she couldn't maintain both jobs and was asked/forced to quit her job. So women were forced to make choices, teach and be single or married and be a wife. Surprisingly, that is why there were a lot of ladies who chose teaching and stayed single. Now look at us, we comprise over 60% of the workforce. Thanks for sharing this beautiful quilt with us. Great workmanship.
