    What a very lovely heirloom you have. I love the colors of the era. She was a wonderful quilter.

    That is beautiful! I love her fancy edge with the dresden plate petals! Look at the 1&1/2 inch hand quilted cross hatching done over the entire quilt, that is a true treasure!

    That is gorgeous! Oh my gosh, it is just incredible. You have taken such great care of it. I love the white fabric with the colors they complement each other so well. What a cherished piece of your grandmother for you to have. That's wonderful.

    That is truly beautiful. Lovely hand quilting and such a fancy border. I really like the pink centers she used. Peggy
