Thank you. It was, and still is, a little yellowed at the edges. I washed it with oxyclean and detergent on gentle. It did pull a few stitches out...the quilt is all hand stitched, so I don't intend to wash it again. I bought it at a road side yard sale where they were selling off "grannies" stuff.' The colors caught my eye, and I picked the quilt up, looked it over and bought it. Granny deserved better.
