I know I was so lucky especially since they were just stored in a cardboard box! No yellowing or anything.

There are 24 flowers sewn into the big piece, then I have about 15 flowers already sewn, but not put on the big piece, and enough small pieces to make 18 more flowers. I will need to get more white, which I hopefully can match. But altogether it will make a baby size blanket. I may get more 40s fabric on ebay and maybe sash it different to differentiate, but I'd love it to be a lap size if I could .....
