Your quilts are wonderful. I have that complete set of brown and white china. with accessory pieces. I bought them in 1976 when they produced them for the bicentennial. I've never known anyone else who had them. They are always on display in my hutch and I use them for all special occasions and company. Did your quilt win in Lancaster? I hope so. I had that same GW fabric and made a tribute quilt for him that I hang in the high school media center during February every year.

I love reading your blog because it's so different than a lot of the "modern" quilt blogs I read, and this post is a standout, with all its presidential themes and treasures. I spent a year in DC with my husband a few years back and really fell in love with the history and the monuments, so exemplified by what you've shown us here!<br /><br />thanks--<br />Elizabeth<br />opquilt.comLetterpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13983311236791267553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-14012145801286840082012-02-22T21:39:49.728-05:002012-02-22T21:39:49.728-05:00CONGRATS on Remembering Abe!
