A Special Gift
Today I met my cousin and her daughter at the cafe at Davidson's Court. Ethel had brought me a special gift from another cousin of mine that I haven't seen in years. This is a quilt that my mother made for Carol Ann and she had never used so thought I might like it and I do! When we sold the house I had sold or given away a lot of my quilts so I'm very glad to have this one. Now, I wonder, can any of you quilters out there tell me what the pattern is?

ReplyDeleteThe quilt is lovely, but someone else will have to tell you the pattern. Happy Trails, Penny.
ReplyDeleteI just love the old quilts. My grandma was an excellent quilter and I always wished I had time and patience to take it up. It think it was more the lack of patience.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely story behind this quilt!!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYep. I think it's definitely Chinese Fan.
