I call this phot "The Kitchen Ladies." It is of my two maternal great-grandmothers and my mother (the one doing the dishes). My great-grandmothers are the reason my sister and I started quilting. They didn't teach us, but my sister had inherited two quilts they had done with their prospective church quilting bees. The quilts were not labeled, but we know these ladies quilted each wednesday at their churches.
My sister had wanted to restore the quilts, which had been well loved over the years. On advise of a quilt shop owner, she was told to instead reproduce them and that they really could not be fixed. So, my sister started quilting. She in turn gave me the quilting bug about 6 years ago.
So, it all started here. Thank you, Kitchen ladies.
