OK, I am ready to admit it. I have a problem with a certain soft item…

I must have them all over the house…

Yes! I am crazy about quilts. There is something about them…all of them…pristine ones from a long stored hope chest…

Well loved ones that have kept babies warm and served as forts for active little boys for generations…

But I ask you, who could resist the colorful charm…or the ability to literally touch the past?

Perhaps you can even touch generations back on your own family tree…

A treasured past to pass down to our future…

Such beautiful quilts! My grandmother always made beautiful quilts. Unfortunately I don’t have any of them. They really are a wonderful item to have in one’s home. I love all those beautiful pillows on the bed with the red and white quilt; very pretty! Thanks for sharing.

I’m one who appreciates quilts too. I have many old ones and a few that I’ve done myself since retiring. The history of the designs and the fabrics as well as the workmanship in these pieces make me value them as pieces of art. I like the way you’ve rolled some and placed them in the dough bowl. I have our quilts on beds, stacked on shelves, one hung on the wall, and more hanging on the rungs of a vintage ladder. Thanks for sharing your collection. It’s lovely!

I love your quilts. Have always wanted a “real” one. By that, I mean one either made for me, or passed down. Well, a few months ago, Carl’s sister gave us a quilt that had belonged to someone in the family (neither of them could figure out who, though). Unfortunately, it is in an advanced state of decline. . .so I am thinking of salvaging parts of it that are not totally threadbare, and perhaps framing those pieces. Some of the fabric patterns look very old. You have quite a lovely collection! And your little girl is adorable!
LikeLike
A few of the oldest ones are in pristine condition. Most likely they spent a lot of time in a hope chest. I have a soft spot for the hard working ones, tattered and all I love the idea of framing pieces. I think it would be a show stopping display.
