She made me a handsome hand sewn quilt that I still use on my bed. I have one other quilt she made and a wall hanging. She lived in Ohio and I remember her talking about the exquisite workmanship of the Amish's quilts. Thanks for sharing this outing with us. Love the quilts you selected for Owen!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10897318808015139270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988727260974463456.post-60124940017997798472010-06-17T10:27:35.408-05:002010-06-17T10:27:35.408-05:00Oh Teri, I just got through reading your husband&#...Oh Teri, I just got through reading your husband's story and then how delightful to read this post about the auction and see a picture of Johnnie-Ray too. It brought the whole story that I just read to life! How lucky little Owen is to have such a special Auntie! I love quilts, I just don't own any though. The ones made by my Grandmother especially, we don't know what happened to them all over the years before she passed. But I do have a special braided rug she made that even included fabric from some of my high school dresses! Great story Teri! ~LiliLilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03003968489244660242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3988727260974463456.post-73402618212674459562010-06-16T07:58:07.411-05:002010-06-16T07:58:07.411-05:00Beautiful quilts.

My mother has a double wedding ring quilt her grandmother made her for her wedding - 55 years ago. I am currently working on two quilts - one a queen size for our bed and a second in log cabin style for our guest room. <br /><br />Do you quilt yourself?The Good Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01249986191289837440noreply@blogger.com
