Where I live we have a huge flea market once a month. My daughter & I went this month & I was absolutely shocked at the amount of old quilts that were there for sale! All were made for some occasion or another, some really well quilted, some not. Some thread bare in spots from use. But the prices! Cheap! Cheap! Cheap!! Then the other spectrum was new quilts that come from China & their prices! They're a whole lot cheaper than any of us can make them, but, of course, the quality isn't there either. It makes it difficult to try and price ones we make for sale.
I'm really glad you found this one & am giving it a good home! It's a beautiful quilt!
