My mother wasn't a quilter (although she was an accomplished sewist) but several of my paternal aunts were. The only thing related to quilts I remember from my childhood was that my sister and I helped to "comb" wool that had been in an old quilt to prepare it for a new quilt. A family of sisters used to quilt for out. This was in the forties. I wish I knew what had become of those two beautiful whole cloth quilts.
