Bonham, Texas -- During the upcoming Bonham Quilt Hop Show, July 25–26, 18 antique quilts made by Gertrude Comstock Gulley (1872 – 1948) will be displayed at the Bonham Visitor Center and offered for purchase.

These beautiful quilts were made from men’s shirts, women’s dresses, chicken feed sacks, flour sacks and store-bought goods. The quilts came from a farm life background where there was a chicken yard, pig pens, large gardens and jersey cows.

The quilts are part of an estate which specified that the proceeds from their sale go to Burleson High School and Texas Wesleyan University. So this is the only opportunity to see these amazing quilts.

Visit the Bonham Visitor Center during the Quilt Hop Show, as well as other locations in Bonham and Honey Grove displaying antique and contemporary quilts.
