Signed, no less, by my husband's gr gr gr Aunt. It must have been done when she was a small child and she was born in 1878! Can you imagine the women that were suppose to sort the quilts are ALL quilters and they threw it in the dumpster? I was shocked. This thing is amazing. It now rests on the "rope bed" that came with the family by covered wagon to our area. So sweet!

Could you post a picture to share?
