Photo Tag: Prized Possession!

After crying through a re-run of Texas Country Reporter (story on generational quilting) last Saturday, I decided that maybe my most prized possession are my quilts. Most of them were made just for me by people who loved me.

The quilts are, top-to-bottom:

• A twin-size quilt. This is the only one that I'm really not sure who made. I remember it being an old quilt when I used it on my bed growing up. This one went to college with me. Maybe after we move, I'll post a picture of it spread out on our craft blog to see if anyone knows who made it.
• With lavender trim & back, Grandmama made this one for me when I was in junior high... to give to me for my wedding. I got it in 1998.
• The burgundy, forest green & navy log cabin quilt was made by Sissy for our bedspread when we got married.
• The "H" quilt was a collaboration by Momma & my husband's Grana (and probably some help from the Sew & Sews) after we got married.
• The brightest quilt I've ever seen was made by Grandmama just a few years ago. This was the last one I got from her. She made one for all 3 of her grand kids.
• The octagon quilt was made by my husband's great-grandmother and given to us for our wedding.
• Finally, the bottom quilt was also made by Grandmama more than a few years ago, but not too long ago. She also made 3 of these that year for each grand kid.
