Thank you for showing these quilt tops. I collect vintage quilt tops that are less than perfect so I really like to see tops from the same era. These are beautiful, I am sure you will treasure them.

What a great treat...after my mothers passing I found 3 quilts...1 my grandmother started, then she and my mother worked on and I finished. The other 2 were started by my mother and i completed those as well...what memories those quilts have...all 3 were done by hand..
