My Great-Great Grandmother Made a Quilt – Simple and Perfect

This quilt is my empowerment. This quilt started me on a ride that I’ve been on for over 40 years, quilting. So today, I’m share my FAVORITE quilt !

My Great-Great Grandmother’s Quilt This quilt was a gift to my mother from her Great Grandmother. And then a Gift to me from My Mother. Making it my, GREAT-GREAT Grandmother’s Gift to ME ! Well…That’s how I like to look at it. I never met her and my mom only remembers helping with the peddle sewing machine. I use this quilt and love sleeping under it. It goes in the washer and now living here in Florida and not having a clothes line it does go it the dryer….Yes… it bothers me too, but…. the colors are still very bright.

A bit of Pin Wheel Quilt Pattern FUN

I love quilt patterns, changing and rearranging the pieces into something new makes me happy.  Sharing them is one of my favorites too.  Today’s finished quilt block is eight inches by eight inches.  Please don’t let the size overwhelm you, the quilt squares are cut one at a half and the triangles are two and a half, nothing hard to do.(cut 2 7/8″)

This is a wonderful quilt pattern to move color around the block. Maybe try the triangle as one color and square another??  Have FUN
