I was able to recreate these blocks that are very different from yours, as I'm sure there are many variations. I am a member of an ancestry site in which I have "found" numerous cousins, many times removed. You've given me an idea to make a quilt with all their names and relationships to my grt-grt-grt grandmother. Thanks for the unique idea.

I own a historical signature quilt created in 1928 in what is now Minnesota smallest town (population 6!)I have just written a book about this quilt and also tell the stories about just a few of the 530 people whose names appear on the quilt. The quilt was created as a fundraiser (a dime per signature) for a cook stove in the dance hall in Tenney. If you or any of your readers are interested in the book (which will be available around November 10 from the publisher), they can contact me at tenneyquilt@yahoo.com. If not, that's OK too - just wanted to say hello to fellow signature quilt lovers.<BR/>Heidi HHeidi Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108658598885415714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1261449490327857503.post-88103741988714781282007-03-25T21:05:00.000-07:002007-03-25T21:05:00.000-07:00Love the history of quilts - you are lucky to have...Love the history of quilts - you are lucky to have such a rich history of quilting in the States. I would love to see some old quilts in the flesh, not just in books. And I can't even see your hair!Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15434857739724897230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1261449490327857503.post-19005127969188724792007-03-25T16:11:00.000-07:002007-03-25T16:11:00.000-07:00I love signature quilts, too.

That's my new goal for this week.) I have one that I won in my guild. Everyone who made a block signed their block, our names were put in a hat, and the name that was drawn won the quilt(someone took the blocks and made them into a quilt). I won!!! <BR/><BR/>I also make signature quilts for my grand babies first Christmas', or anything special. <BR/><BR/>The quilt you made Katie is gorgeous. <BR/><BR/>I will post mine on my blog as soon as I learn how to do pictures, and as soon as I let my guard down and let people see "me".Busy Little Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11030043135910710800noreply@blogger.com
