1938 antique quilt

 One of our stops while on vacation over the weekend was in Texas near Austin. We visited my sister-in-law and on display was a quilt from 1938 that she found after her dad died last August.


It’s a quilt made by the members of a quilting bee called the Jolly Home Makers Club from Seligman, Missouri.  My mother-in-law was a member and she was 14 years old. The block above says June Andrews and it’s the block she made for the quilt. It’s a queen size quilt made entirely by hand.
