How many quilts do you personally own Nancy Jo? I only own two...one my Mother-In-Law made for me and it is gorgeous. And very Spring/Summer Colors and then one I found at an Antique Shop in a small town for $20.00. I couldn't believe it was priced right but I scooped it up and bought it quickly. LOL It is in Fall/Winter Colors. Then I almost forgot...I have one infant quilt in darker colors that some one gave me for Elijah when he is at my house. I was thrilled...she was a younger gal and was going to just give it to Good Will but then thought I might want it.
I have two Large quilted squares my MIl also made me. One is again Spring and one Fall that I use on the Kitchen table or backs of chairs. Also I have an Amish quilted Wedding Ring Table Runner that I did a MJF Swap for.
I wish I had more but just feel blessed to have what I have.
Hi Peggy, I have 8 quilts, and then several smaller quilted pieces my Aunt made me. I'm not counting the ones I made that are just squares sewn together. Yes sometimes you find that people just donate their quilts to thrift stores etc, gotta think that they must know someone they could give it to instead. Nice here today, I think its a BLT SANDWICH DAY. Got some nice tomatoes from my daughter, and Amish bacon from my son in law. Nancy Jo
