    Thry were given to me by my grandmother who is 97 and they were passed down to her at some point. They are different sizes but all are twin bed size or bigger. The stitching is very intricate and they have beautiful stitch patterns so I am not sure if that type of work is possible with hand quilting or if it is machine stitched. I have no intention of selling as they are family treasures but I would Like as much history as possible so I can pass on to my children some day. Any history or general data would be great!

      Beautiful hand quilting . Hard to tell if the quilt pieces were hand sewn or machine by photo but quilting is all by hand and the design of it is wonderful . Can you show the backs ? The quilting pattern should show up there nice . Priceless !
