My SIL recently gave me this quilt that she found in her attic. She doesn't know any details, but she lives on the James River in Virginia and there's a centennial home on the property. Since I'm a new quilter, I don't know much about old fabrics, patterns, etc. The quilt is completely handmade. Any thoughts on how to clean it, how old it might be, what the pattern is, etc.? Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
