I can't tell you how special I think that quilt is. My grandmother did the same type of stitch on her blocks like that. I remember her teaching that to me as well. What I think is so totally cool is how all of the women in your family hand-finished it for you. That is truly a treasure that you can never replace or put a price on!Kayrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08735245416162284974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753791058334220460.post-51489899293456090582009-03-06T06:15:00.000-06:002009-03-06T06:15:00.000-06:00What a sweet quilt!
