Today I wanted to share something my great grandmother made. My mom recently told me about it and I just couldnt wait to see it. My great grandmother made my mom and dad a king size quilt for their wedding. The enrire quilt was HAND SEWN!! Wow!!! She did send it away to be quilted by a professional. This quilt will be 49 years old this October.
It is beautiful!! The only sad thing is my mom gave it to my older sister years ago. I didnt even know it exsisted! It sat in my moms cedar chest for years then she gave it to my sister only to be put in a box in her basement!! Something like this needs to be on display.... Oh how I want it for my living room....
I think my great grandmother was an amazing quilter. I just wish I had been able to meet her, I am sure she could have taught me so much!

It's beautiful and it looks like it's in excellent condition! Can you talk your sister into gifting it to you? ;-)
ReplyDeleteWell... After I gave her the idea I think she might pull it out and display it. It's in great condition and I just love it! Thanks!
