Old Quilts

My mom came down to visit me and gave me the rest of the quilt tops that my Granny and Granny Parker made.  I just love looking at them because they are beautiful and amazing.  I think all but two are hand stitched.  These days we are so in a hurry to get something done.  I can't imagine how long it took Granny Parker to stitch a whole quilt top by hand!  They are really pretty too.  I hope to make one or two into another quilt. 
Granny may have made this one.

Hand stitched!


We think Granny made this one out of flour sacks by machine.  It has a few stains on it.
