Each of these tiny squares were stitched together by hand. It is proudly displayed in my home.
This is a "yo-yo" bedspread that she made for me when I was a young girl. It is in my guest bedroom now on the bed that was mine when I was a little girl.GRANDMA'S QUILT
With gentle and loving fingers She caressed the well worn fold; 'Round each piece a mem'ry lingers like a sweet story often told.

Oh, your Grand Ollie's hand made quilts are real treasures, Patti. Beautiful heirlooms! How lucky you are to have them. Beautiful pictures of the quilts.
Have a wonderful day!

Those are just beautiful! I have several that my grandmothers gave to me. I noticed that my favorite had a small hole in it. I was so sad to see it! I am hoping to get a cedar chest to store them in.
What a great memory of your GrandOllie.
