Wow, thanks for so many responses about my crazy, scrappy, vintage quilt. It was so fun to read all the opinions. The kids helped me today sandwich it and get her ready for quilting! We decided to back it with flannel and tie it. It's going to be very cozy!!! I'll post pics when I'm done. Thanks to all!

Good for you!

That's great, getting the kids involved too!

Way to go! Nice save. I think the whole family will be jostling over who gets it first!

Oh good!

Wonderful, the children will always want to use it because they helped you with it.

that is wonderful news

I'm glad it grew on you. And am so happy you are finishing it.

I have had U-G-L-Y quilts, I thought...turn into LOVELY quilts when quilted....somehow they just grow on you...
