Applique'd Utility Quilt


The Applique'd Utility Quilt has been delivered.
Over the past many months I've had the opportunity to do some repairs to this quilt made from 1910 to 1930's fabrics. The process was a pleasure in that I got to touch and work with these old fabrics but also got to share a little information with the family regarding the quilt. This little baby could be nearly 100 yrs old, what fun. There are no such treasures in my family.

I *love* Sunbonnet Sue. My own Sunbonnet Sue made by my grandmother was loved to death - in such shreds that even YOU could not have restored it to life. But what could be better for a quilt you make for a grandchild than to have it used and loved? I know this one is loved, too. [PS for the record I'm not 100!]
