But the brat was wrong- it's been years since I finished it lolol
I bought a top in an antique store once that was a basket design with embroidered flowers in the basket. It was probably 1930's or40's. It was set together with the brightes bubble gum pink squares you ever did see. I finished it, hand quilted, and it is very pretty. I love the old quilts. I didn't change anything in it and the original quilter must be pleased because I've had no "hauntings".
