I love to do it, but don't seem to get into it very often. You have a "knack" for it, I think. (Did I spell that word right?) Keep up the good work.Clara....in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07111947670369158947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327168900682458507.post-66375367927468613262010-04-21T20:54:32.325-07:002010-04-21T20:54:32.325-07:00More lovely quilts -- you have quite a talent.

The thing that really surprised me was the it showed her name and the middle name was not the name I had thought was hers. Here birth middle name was Katherine, but I had always thought it was Kaye. She was kind of upset that I found out the truth and told me she hated that name. I think its a very nice name--I don't know why it bothered her so.<br /><br />Lee<br /> <a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/2010/04/q-is-for-quotes-what-people-have-said.html" rel="nofollow"> A to Z Challenge Reflections Mega Post</a>Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327168900682458507.post-30937373239509986392010-04-21T19:57:01.777-07:002010-04-21T19:57:01.777-07:00Wonderful quilts and wonderful stories about the r...Wonderful quilts and wonderful stories about the rationing!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12819089896296871441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327168900682458507.post-13044176456797694902010-04-21T15:50:43.482-07:002010-04-21T15:50:43.482-07:00It's very interesting hearing about the ration...It's very interesting hearing about the rationing.

Thank you for the compliments on my quilting. They are all stitched with love in each one. I don't have pictures of all of them, though. I have made five large quilts for grandchildren, and 4 quilts for Allie's grandchildren, and working on the seventh one for my great grands. I will post the pic of it when I am finished. <br />RubyGrammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07080499751409620799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327168900682458507.post-22703347404695002222010-04-21T13:07:17.866-07:002010-04-21T13:07:17.866-07:00History is fascinating to hear from people who liv...History is fascinating to hear from people who lived it rather than stale history books!
