OK, I am ready to admit it. I have a problem with a certain soft item…
I must have them all over the house…
Yes! I am crazy about quilts. There is something about them…all of them…pristine ones from a long stored hope chest…
Well loved ones that have kept babies warm and served as forts for active little boys for generations…
But I ask you, who could resist the colorful charm…or the ability to literally touch the past?
Perhaps you can even touch generations back on your own family tree…
A treasured past to pass down to our future…

What a beautiful collection of quilts you have! I have a couple but most of them are still unfinished 😦 But I will get there! Your home is so welcoming and lovely

I definitely am with you, on the allure of quilts. I make some, but I don’t have many. Your collection is astonishing!

What a collection you have! My grandmother spent every spare moment making quilts. My mom sewed my clothes and then she used the scraps to make my quilt…a sunbonnet. I can still picture the outfits each quilt piece were from. What a lovely memory you stirred up with that.

My mom loves to look at my grandmothers quilts for the same reason. The patterns bring back memories for her.

I just had to get rid of a beloved quilt my husband’s grandma made. We “loved” it to tatters and there wasn’t anything left to cover us with!!

That must have been heart-breaking. I have learned that memories don’t depend on a particular item…and managed to purge years of stuffed animal collections from childhood and high school notes. The happy memories of that quilt will last forever.

I love quilts too, and I LOVE the way you displayed them in that cabinet, and at the end of the bed.
