SHARING MEMORIES
Thank you, my readers and fellow quilt lovers, for sharing your memories and experiences with “blankies” and quilts your grandmothers or moms made you.  I hope you’re writing them down, taking pictures of the quilts if they still exist, and preserving these memories for future generations.
I’d like to share some of these with other readers, so from time to time will post your comments here since not so many people may see them in a comment.
