    Thanks for sharing about the treasures of quilts and memories. I'm so glad they are being passed on and kept in the family.

    An inspiring story. I can imagining that many are wishing they had family quilts in their hands to hold or to share. I do!

    Thank you all so much. Yes, this was a fun story. I am so happy those quilts are now in the hands of the rightful owner. And, thank you all for the help in figuring out the names of the blocks, too. WMUTeach, you helped me identify the Pontiac star. I would never have known that one.

    This cousin brought us some things from her mom and dad's shed that had been stored for years before they died. We got the Coke cooker and cleaned it up to sit in our screened in front porch. We're loving that, too. It sure was a fun weekend.
