I love the beauty of quilts and admire the work that goes into making them. I have tried my hand at making a few for my grandchildren. Mine are simple. I am not one to go into detail...I guess the truth is I just don't have the talent for it. I love them never the less.
I have a aunt that is a very talented quilter...two nights ago I went to visit her and ask If I could make pictures of her quilts to share on my blog. I had shown one of her quilts before here if you would like to see it.
This Aunt is on my dads side. I just love this quilt so pretty. Bonnet Girl Quilt. I searched the web for this pattern could not fine one like it.
I remember the pattern from when I was young so its pretty old. Her quilt is not that old just the pattern.
Can only image how many hours of work went into creating this beauty.
A close up.
More to come.......

Trish,
Love the your header with the fall trees. The quilt is very pretty.
I imagine it took quite a while to make.

that is so cute. And I just love your blog header photo! Have a great week.
Love the quilt! I make them too but not appliqued ones. Weren't the bonnet ladies popular in the 40's along with baskets?
Oh wow...that quilt is just wonderful and does bring back the nostalgia in a person.
Sunbonnet Sue is a sweet pattern and I should think you could find a pattern with a Google search for one. If I come across one I will email it to you.
You're a wonderful quilter, see, you inherited it from auntie!
Hugs,
Susan
Hi Trish! Oh, your aunt's quilt is so pretty~ I love that pattern and look at all of the applique! That had to take a very long time. It's a beautiful quilt.
Come on over! :) If you can't, have a blessed Thanksgiving,
Shelia ;)
