This one had a wonderful variety of fabrics. 
I love the scalloped border on this quilt.
This quilt was particularly difficult to photograph - the quilting was marvelous. I think the blocks have so much interest pieced from striped fabric.
This quilt was amazing - 100 years later it is in unused condition. I love quilts with Flying Geese and the fabric is such a warm lovely cheddar. 
I have never personally seen such tiny even stitches. I had read about quilting like this and seen pictures of it but in person ... its incredible! There are more - but I couldn't figure out how to load more than 5 pictures into one post. If there are people interested in old quilts poorly photographed I will post more later. :0)

Hi,
Just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed reading your blog. You are so talented! I enjoy all of the lovely quilts that you make. The use of colors in your quilts turn out stunning! I am always drawn to quilts with lots of applique and bright colors.
I am fairly new at quilting and not very good yet at color values, you have given me some great ideas.
Keep up the good work and keep the posts coming!
Blessings to you,
Kymber
