They are quite popular now as collector's items for some quilters. You might see if someone who knows feedsacks can take a look at it.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10990519995961591871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16258808.post-1159942800637639872006-10-04T02:20:00.000-04:002006-10-04T02:20:00.000-04:00Tammy,It's a beautiful quilt, and I can't wait to ...Tammy,<BR/>It's a beautiful quilt, and I can't wait to see the finished product.

My grandmother actually made these; we have several of her finished ones in the family. My sister inherited the unfinished tops (not by a "will" more by default); so I can really relate to the enjoyment & the pain of your task (it's a BIG job!). Oh, by the way, she's not done with hers yet either, and she IS in her 40's! --;O)Jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07724180634582208804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16258808.post-1159838778103845302006-10-02T21:26:00.000-04:002006-10-02T21:26:00.000-04:00I don't have one that's supposed to take forever, ...I don't have one that's supposed to take forever, but I do have one that is taking forever - my husband's cross-stitched eagle. I worked on it faithfully this past spring, but stopped for our trip to Texas, and I haven't picked it up since. I started it about 8 years ago!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08733406219995902188noreply@blogger.com
