My week seemed to slip away from me again ~ but, I
finally got my act together and got a post ready.
Today,was the first day of school here for our
grandchildren ~ always a big day! It was so good to hear
they all came home happy.
Anyway,I have always loved quilts especially old
handmade ones so today I am airing them for you!
these beautiful quilts.
the days when I had seven young children,
but didn't blog so I had more free time ha!ha!
This was my son's room when he was a little
boy many moons ago.It seems like not just my
week slipped by!!!
Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn

Seven children! What a wonderful blessing! And all these quilts are so beautiful. I too like to use them as tablecloths.
You have an amazing collection of quilts that are lovely. Also, your son's room was so sweet. Your home is always so warm and friendly and your kitchen is looking darling.
Oh - one more thing. I only had 2 children and now I really regret that. I think you made the better choice - and more grandchildren. I only have 2!
I am unequivocally unspecified they on impute to lots of unorthodox articles in your blog than anybody else!....Best Cardsharing Server

I love quilts! Greetings from Poland
Great quilts!
Have a wonderful and sunny weekend:)
What a wonderful sight - all those quilts hanging on the line. I had never thought of using them as table covers. xx
I admire all the quilting ladies who made these beautiful quilts. You showed them in a terrific way. I only made two quilts in my life, have not the patience to sit still for such a long time after another.
Olá Carolyn,
Suas colchas são lindas! Sabe o quanto gosto de patchwork e suas peças são maravilhosas. Me aposento no início de outubro e estou com muita espectativa em ter tempo disponível para fazer belos trabalhos manuais. Um bom final de semana.

Love, love, love your beautiful quilts. How happy they all look together! Best, Ruthie
Beautiful quilts, I love them as table coverings. My mother makes quilts, and I can appreciate how labor intensive they are. Real treasures to own.
Yes OLD QUILTS are wonderful..thank you for sharing yours with us.
As I saw your photos I thought but I have such a few....3 total but then I realized I too can tell a QUILT STORY...a Short Story~ as always thank you for the inspiration.
These quilts are so lovely. I have a secret love of quilts. I have a few that were made for me by a dear sweet lady, Nell Johansen, when I was a young girl, I also have a few from my Grandmother and in recent years a dear friend has made some small ones for me as well. I count myself very blessed.
You have some wonderful old quilts,thanks for sharing with us.I have some beauties a precious aunt made for me and i love them.
What a beautiful collection of quilts you have, Carolyn! I have a few from my mother and grandmother and cherish each one. You are so blessed to be a mother of 7 children! :)

Quilts are like photos of the past they are always fun to look at and then to be able to touch something that you know has many hours of love in them. I have a couple of quilts that belonged to my grandmother and great grandmother. But one special quilt that my daughter kidnapped and she still uses (when she is sick guess what blanket she wants) and gives her great memories of her ancestors.
Love the way you have displayed the quilts and used as a table cover.
Lovely, striking, beautiful quilts! The colors are so vibrant!
They remind me of Grandma. She was a big quilter. I have one of her quilts that I treasure.
Amazing treasure.
I have 2 quilts but it is stuck in the garage.
Thank you for reminding. I guess and for sure to get them when I get back home.
Njoy the weekend.
