Grandma's Flower Garden - I estimate that this quilt was made in the 1930's by my grandmother. I asked her to teach me to handquilt when I was a teen but she refused saying it was too eye straining ( I am blind in 1 eye) and she felth regular machine and hand sewing was enough for my good eye. I regret that I didn't continue my request, but she was rather stubborn and probably wouldn'thave changed her mind. I was given this from her estate when she passed away at the age of 89 & 10 months.
