    Found this quilttop today at Goodwill. The embroidery is very good. All of flowers, some on beige and some on white, gold lattice. It is big enough for a queen size bed. Some of the seams need resewn as it appears the machine wasn't stitching well. I am so excited. Wed. is my birthday and it is the first one since my DH passed away in Dec. I think I just got a birthday present!

    Looks to me like someone else claimed it first!! It's lovely and I hope you enjoy it. Someone put a lot of work into it.
