Often they tell a story, or they are just absolute works of art. More power to quilters with patience.

Most were so "ratty" by the time I was in my thirties they would need lots of tender loving work to restore. I didn't know how, and never had the extra money to have it done. Also, people used to use cotton batting, that had weight to it. It felt so good on a cold night! Now everyone uses man-made stuff that weighs nothing. They look nice, but aren't what I consider a quilt.<br />Barbara from <a href="http://lifefaithincaneyhead.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Life & Faith in Caneyhead</a>Barbara In Caneyheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06053601327400989802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-85294573620141130152017-03-15T13:46:12.893-05:002017-03-15T13:46:12.893-05:00It was a sad day for both sides of the border when...It was a sad day for both sides of the border when the powers that be stopped all donations of any kind crossing the borders without paying an export tax.
