What a treasure - I never see anything like this at any thrift shop.

What a beautiful quilt. I often wonder why beautiful work like this winds up at Goodwill. Evidentally, they don't know the sentimental value. I have often rescued handmade items from yard sales, crochet, or quilted.

How anyone could let this end up in a thrift shop is beyond me, but i'm so glad you have saved it.

What a find. It would be great to finish it as it will last much better onoce it is quilted. Good luck.
