Earlier in 2014 I was asked to quilt these applique quilts that were original designs by Frances Benton. Mrs. Benton passed away several years ago and these original design applique quilt tops were in her collection and donated to the Texas Quilt Museum. There were 15 quilts in her collection, two of which had been completed by her and the remaining 13 quilts were quilted by others. I was lucky enough to have the honor of quilting three of these beautifully appliqued quilts.
