Design Source - Description |
My grandmother was a very frugal woman, she had to be to raise 3 children during the depression. This scrap nine-patch quilt was made from scraps and feed sack materials from her stash (scrap box). I learned to save all those small pieces of sewing fabric from making clothing to use in a quilt later. This quilt has kept 5 generations of my family warm and is a treasurer to me. Thefabrics are mostly from the 1930"s and theback is made from feed sacks. |
