AN ANTIQUE HANDKERCHIEF QUILT

Cathy M. was recently at the Attic Window Quilt Shop and took these photos and sent them to me.
Above, Pauline shows us her antique handkerchief quilt.

This is a closeup of one of the blocks.  Pauline said that most of these handkerchiefs came from her collection.


These photos show her family.  Pauline made this quilt for her male cousin who has studies their family's history.

A special thank you to Cathy for taking and sending these photos to us.  
Great job Pauline!
