Hooray for you for rescuing it, Sherone! Good girl! And that's a pretty quilt on that nice rocking chair. It's a cold day here in KY. I'd love to be sitting in that rocking chair with the quilt over me having a cup of tea!

Thanks! I love that quilt. It was a gift from a dear friend of mine. The pink pillow on the rocking chair was a gift from my MIL and the pink quilt behind the red and blue one was made by my mom. I remember lying under it as she made it watching the pictures appear on the bottom. Ahhhh, childhood.
It's cold here too. Come to think of it, a quilt wrapped around me does sound good.
My daughter bought a very nice one from a gift shop that had used it for display for at least 25 years. Think she paid about $500 and it's well worth it. There was one sitting in a tiny house in the small town where my husband grew up; had been there for at least 50 years. Woman who bought the house agreed to sell it and an oak ice box to me for $50 each and then her grandaughter claimed both of them. Was many years ago, probably 30, but I still feel cheated. My BIL had lived in the house and I'd loved the Hoosier when I was a teenager. Ronna
Oooo, I love that and the log cabin quilt. Did you make that? I have made 9 full size quilts and have yet to make a log cabin. Loved the picture. pinkroses
Just beautiful!! I have always wanted one..maybe someday!! I kinda know the finish and all that I want...I love both of yours...so different and both so pretty!!!
