    I can see that the little print in the center is definitely 60's fabric. That is so cool!!

    Thank you for sharing this special story of a special quilt! It is very poignant for me because I was a senior in college in '68 and the world was just beginning. The fact that you kept it all these years and picked it back up to finish it is just wonderful. Enjoy it for many years to come.

    Very nice - you're right, every quilt does have a story. Good for you finishing it after so many years.

    What a great story! The quilt is really lovely and it will come to life with the long arm quilting. You wait and see.
    Check with the long arm quilter, I bet she can give you as good a deal on the batting as you can buy it for. They buy it by the huge roll.
