Bow Ties
These are among my mother's things I found after she died. Sure wish she could have shared information about them with me before she died. They have started to be put together but there are some individual blocks and some taken apart. The blocks are hand sewn and then put together with machine.

Hi Katie, sooo glad you are back, knowing full well, you had a great time!!! *VBS*

Love the old bow ties. This is the traditional piecing. I've done a number of quilts from this way, and then the EZ ones with the sew and flip.
These fabrics aren't as old as the ones above..I think probably a scrap bag of 30's, 40's and maybe some 1950's. From what I can in the picture.
