Bow Tie Quilt

Good morning to you. I don't recall having shown this quilt to you. I guess the reason being it wasn't
made by me. I have just found this photo I had made years ago.


 My aunt Kitty made this quilt a long time ago, she made quilts and sold them when she lived in Nashville Tn this one was made before then. She was quite the quilt maker and made beautiful quilts. Her husband did upholstery and did a few of the stars buses while living in Nashville.

She gave the quilt top to me on one of my visits and I had it quilted. It has been on the bed for looks at one time but never used and now it is packed away. This has been many years ago  I was in my mid thirties then.
