14 years ago I went to FL for my honeymoon, while down there I visited my Grandparents and they gave me a few items that Grandma wanted me to have. Included in these items was a quilt my great grandmother made. I liked quilts back then but now I LOVE quilts. I knew this quilt was somewhere and since I have been so addicted to quilting these past few years I went on a hunt for it. I found it but it is burried. It is in the clear plastic container against the wall on the bottom. I can see it has yellow binding on it. I guess I will have to wait for DH to get home to dig it out.

if I remember correctly it is a double wedding ring in blues and yellows with white background
