Close up Grandma's hand sewing .

Here is a close up look of the different materials Grandma used.  Notice how perfect she sewed them together by hand. Her corners are perfect.

Postage Stamp quilt by Grandma.

This quilt was hand sewed together by my grandmother  Caroline Steffanni with 20 and 30 materials and my mother Anna Hines  put the border on and knotted it many years later.
My mom gave it to my son Eric Lozier who enjoys knowing his great grandma made it.
