Dang, I can't believe I left out so much pertinent information. First of all, I found this pieced quilt top in a box of scraps that came to me from an estate auction that I went to YEARS ago, put the box away and forgot about it until our extended snow vacation from school. It is not quilted, and is a crumpled up mess from having been stuffed into that box for umpteen years. So, I realize the first thing I need to do is press it out enough to take a picture of it; and maybe I can get that done today.

Thanks, Prism, I'll be waiting for your reply. I dread working on this quilt because of the smell; but I do realize that I have to do it this way because washing it before any handling will ruin it. I know too, that the paper has to come off the back before I load it onto the quilting machine--or get it ready for hand-quilting--whichever I decide.
