A few antique Baby quilts

This ABC quilt was made by my mother when I was small.

    beautiful quilts , oh its so nice that you have the quilt made by your mother, what a true treasure.
    of course just love the red and green ones, not surprised are you?
    Love the idea of taking a block enlarging it and making a border for a crib size quilt.
    love the flying geese, oh that lancaster blue with red and cheddar has me intrigued! The picture of it will not enlarge are all the fabrics prints or are any solids?
    thanks again for sharing your treasures with us I am always excited when you have a post!

  7. The ABC quilt is really special. I love all of these quilts - my jaw dropped lower and lower as I scrolled down. I especially love the two red and green ones.

  8. They are all wonderful Donna. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I think the red and green ones.
