Thanksgiving is behind us, but for me, besides over eating and enjoying my family connections, it has given me a reason to consider my blessings and to live with a thankful heart.
Today I am revisiting The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Denver, Colorado. This star quilt is stunning!
The Study of Civil War Quilts.
What a gorgeous quilt this is, with incredible hand quilting.
All of these Civil War era quilts were very inspirational. I am always drawn to the old traditional designs.
I apologize, but I did not remember to get the information on this beautiful quilt.

What beautiful quilts. I was particularly drawn to Lyres & Laurel and Louisa's Hope. Both stunning as was Union. I can't imagine creating such lovely quilts.
