			Recently I was given an old king size quilt that was made probably 40 yrs ago by my great grandma. It's so heavy I can hardly fold it. Gonna save it for winter. Looks similar to this one:

			Yes, those old vintage quilts, what made them SO heavy? Perhaps better made textiles fabrics? Whatever, they lasted forever!

			[QUOTE=gotoseagrl;1088963]Recently I was given an old king size quilt that was made probably 40 yrs ago by my great grandma. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I remember when I was a girl, back in the 70’s, there was a project by women, to preserve examples of quilting from various different time periods, not only the work and doings of the Betsy Rosses of the world but also that of women from less privileged and esteemed backgrounds too. It was a very interesting project to be involved with. Every quilt tells a story about both the period in which it was made, as well as the woman/women (in some cases man/men) behind the quilt who made it. I don’t have anything made by any of by any of my grandmothers, or even my mother - not a thing made by anyone female in my family not even from any of those who are still living. How very fortunate you are to have had something like this handed down, passed along, entrusted to you for safe keeping. What an exceedingly precious, irreplaceable gift - enjoy! I'm sure it would delight your grandmother, as well as anyone else who might had a hand, helped play a part in it's construction to know how very much you do.

			I know the reason at least some of them lasted so long, wore like iron was because they were filled with heavy duty repurposed wool used as  batting as well as in some cases topper material in all or as part of their construction.

			According to the posts I am vintage LOL. I was raised with a wood stove, no refrigeration, no running water, no plumbing of any kind. Outhouse and well was what we had. I lived in what is now a city so I am vintage for sure. I still have a couple of those snap lid jars and keep stuff in them. Our family passed down a lot of things so I have quite the collection. Things belonging to my Grand parents and great grand parents. We gained everything when we moved from the Island of Newfoundland to Toronto. Just thought I would expose my young years.

			Thank you for the sweet post. Thanks to my dad, this relic was still around, as apparently he has kept things longer than anyone else in the family has, stuff we didn't even know existed still lol. I totally agree about the personal touches that go into quilts, and that's one reason I really want to get into quilting. They are amazing and I love patchwork.

			I grew up in the 80s, which is still more on the "retro" side, so I only saw remnants of some of my favorite decades. Any antiques I find now, especially within the family, I cling to. My heart & soul are attached to the bygone eras before I was born, so I guess that makes me vintage too, in a way. Lol.
