    This is the quilt my husband's grandmother gave us when we got married 10 years ago. She hand quilted and hand embroidery the entire quilt.

    Oh, my!!  That is lovely. How sweet of her to do that for you. Now you have a real lovely cuddle quilt to remember her every time you see it.

    What a lovely keepsake for the two of you. Grandmother's needlework is fantastic.

    Gorgeous and the x-stitch is impeccable. What a job that must have been. Kudos to her.

    Do you wash a gift quilt before giving?
