Special Exhibit...

 
Introducing the Special Exhibit....And for me, I really got excited when I came upon these worn and loved quilts.  Oh, how I wished they could all tell their story.  Hopefully they all were labeled, so that the maker can be remembered by her fine work...."A woman wishing not to be forgotten, thus she signs her name to cloth".
 












 
I forgot to take a picture of the 1/2 yard of assorted shirting's from Penny Rose....however, they go to the first responder @ norma@timelesstraditionsquilts.com
 
Life is an Echo
What we send out - comes back.
What you sow - you reap.
What you give - you get.
What you see in others, exists in you.
Do not judge - so that you will not be judged.
Radiate and give love - and love comes back to you.

  10. I love the string stars with the light pink setting squares. It just really has a charm to it. I like the double line quilting and will have to remember that when I get back to the frames. Thanks for sharing these lovely vintage quilts.

  12. For some reason, the photos did not appear when I visited the blog, darn it. Just boxes with minus signs where the photos belonged.
