What a neat idea! I've done some geneology, might just do a geneology memory quilt. Thanks for the idea.

I'm the family historian too, seems like quilting and genealogy just go together nicely. You're so lucky to have the old treasured photos, great job on the quilting too !

That is just wonderful. I should consider one of these for our family that is restoring some historic homes our family has lived in for generations. Thanks for sharing these.

This is awsome. The colors in the quilt refelect the old pictures, and I just love this idea. I have wanted to search on Ancestry.com, but spending to much time on here and quilting. I may have to have a sideline. I love this quilt.
