Good morning, Billie...and to all our lovely Hostesses and all their Finest FRiends.

Always love your threads, Billie...but you've stitched together a real beauty today.

GailA looks rather comfortable on her couch with Rocky and the little quilt...a Freeper contented...)

I love quilts...soft and wam and comforting...protecting and beautiful.

Hmmm...now, I wonder why we associate them with the feminine and maternal....?

My father's Aunt Ethel crafted the most beautiful quilts, even through her final years. I can remember her showing me a star pattern, and a ring pattern, the last time I saw her (that was the day she cooked the best fried chicken dinner I ever had).

I have a couple of quilts my Mother made, and she has one that her Grandma made, back in the high plains of West Texas (it must be nearly 100 years old now).

Here's a star and circle pattern...kinda purty...)

Wishin' y'all a very good day...may ye be groovin' this Tuesday afternoon.

Good morning, jw - you sure 'stitched' together some 'purty' words about Freezie's and my post this morning. :) I do like that circle and star pattern you pictured, and I HAVE a wedding ring quilt like that one pictured below the star/circle. (same colors and all)

Old quilts, such as the one your mother's grandmother made, are now generally very valuable, and even though your family of course would not want to part with them, some would say it's a good idea to get it appraised some day just so that you can insure it.
