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!

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

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