    What a treasure...and the colors look so bright! So many vintage quilts are faded...but this one is stunning!

    My favorite of all three of the quilts was the one that I had to sell last year. Due to financial reasons, I sold it to a lady in Australia. Here are a few pictures of the one I sold.





    This is the picture of the last one I own from this wonderful lady. She was so talented

    I know how excited you are. Just recently I acquired a quilt made by my Paternal Gr. Mother and P. GGMother. It is the "Drunkard's Path" pattern. It is so beautiful and especially so since it was made about 1895. I will be posting before long! Mariah
