<p>[QUOTE="Northern Lights Lodge, post: 1991441, member: 13464"]Well, here's a weird one. My Mum related this story to me back in the 80's. A friend of hers (Bev) was married and they were financially struggling. They decided to go to a flea market on their motorcycle; just for an outing. As she wandered the booths she ran into a lady selling quilst. One of the quilts just just "talked" to her. It was way more $$ than they had funds for - so she moved on. But every half hour or so she was moved to go back and just "look" at that quilt. Finally she couldn't stand it and begged her husband to buy it. Her husband relented and they bought the quilt. When they returned home; they had a funeral to attend.... and things were busy for a few days. While relatives were all still in town; but the funeral arrangements were concluding, Bev remembered the quilt and retrieved the quilt to show her visiting relatives. One of the aunts was stunned. She related that she "KNEW" this quilt... and that Bev's grandmother had made it. She said; her initials were embroidered on the back. Sure enough they were! :O</p><p><br /></p><p>Leslie[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
