I found this at Goodwill today. It is all hand done, all the applique stitching. Even the squares are hand-sewn together.
It is just the top so now I guess I truly have a UFO finally!!!

It's huge !! 60 x 103

I have found a few goodies, not necessarily quilting ones, at Goodwill, but never anything as nice as that top. It reminds me of a 1930's style of putting the colors together and some of the patterns used.
