Grandmothers quilt







My sister Cyndee is holding a project in her hands that I have been working on for a good two years... some of that just thinking how in the world to even start it! My Mom's mom pieced this quilt many years ago (I know, because she died when I was still a girl). I found out that Cyndee had it for over 30 years! She didn't have time to finish it-- so she decided that I could do it for her! Oh well, Cyndee now knows that her sister Pam loves her! This took me so long that there can be no question of that! Someone had washed it (a mystery as to who) and it had fallen apart! So I restitched it, and then found fabric for the back, and then had a very talented lady I know machine quilt it. Then I bound it, and this weekend gave it to my sister. I think she liked it!
