Granny's Quilt Top
HI, I am a new member.
I sought out this forum because I want to identify my grandmothers quilt top which I am in the process of trying to hand quilt. Granny put this top together pre-1960, as she passed in that year. I am now (for some time) a grandmother myself. For some reason, the need to know what the pattern is called is almost as consuming as the need to get it quilted. Long intro to a question: Can someone tell me how to get this information. I have been combing the web and as everyone knows there are thousands of photos out there so I haven't been able to find it yet. I will get some photos done soon so I can post those in the appropriate place. Thanks in advance... Jessie R.

Welcome to the quilt board from Oregon.
A lot of times your local quilt shop can help you find a quilt name or perhaps they can point you to a Quilt Guild in your area. I could not access you facebook page.
