My Birthday was over this past weekend and thank you to all, I had a fantastic day/weekend ! So, much so I have posting one of my favorite all time posts and it’s quilt block is below too !
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 remembered helping with the peddle sewing machine. I use this quilt and love sleeping under it. It does not go 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.
The hand quilting on this quilt is WONDERFUL
