My grandmother and her six sisters were quilters. They were all near-sighted and could sit around the quilt and toss their eyeglasses into the middle of the quilt. When their children came home to the host- sisters home for a family dinner, the children had the task of retrieving their mother's glasses from center-quilt! They would be appalled today to see machine stitched quilts. Theirs were hand-made --- every stitch!
My husband's grandmother, who lived to be 100, quilted, by hand. She made many beautiful quilts that were given throughout the large family (10 children, many grands and greats). Treasured!
What a beautiful quilt. I sure would love that on my bed.Who ever made it sure did a fantastic job. I enjoyed the jigsaw puzzle a lot.
