    Many of you know that my Mom and Step Dad were coming on Father's Day. (they made it and now are on their way back home) :cry: Anyways, I had made the quilt for my Step Dad as he is always doing things for me since DH can't.
    They brough with them these beautiful quilts.. all made by his Paternal Grandmother around 1950 or so.

    He also made my 4000D set into the table top (I used my old dining room table). So now when I do quilting it'll be nice and flat... He also did something for my serger (no pic yet), but will share that later..

    Here's the quilts.. they're in excellent conditon. I'm asking for a Quilt ladder for my b/d. Only 3 more months to wait! *L*

    The quilts are beautiful and what a treasure your step Dad is to share them with you. Can't wait to see them hanging on your new quilt ladder.
