From My Quilt Collection - Vintage Yo Yo Quilt

I thought I'd share one of the quilts that I live with everyday. This one lives happily on the back of what I call my "Mama Bear Mission Rocker". (Mama Bear because it's not too big and it's not too small.) I purchased this quilt about 8 or 9 years ago from a quilt shop in Indiana. I hope you enjoy the photos.
