That looks like the quilt I bought a few years ago at Wal-Mart. Same colors and looks like same fabric. I use it on my bed. I never get to keep the quilts I do LOL If I remember it had shams that you could buy extra. It is hand quilted too.I noticed the 'new' ones now just use material that is like cheater cloth instead of piecing

Oh dear - i do hope you find out that your aunt made the sham! But even if not, she had an appreciation for the art of quilting - always a good thing!

Thank you guys for the great comments. I'll take it to a friend who is an expert but it has been here a long time because I found it with some of the quilts she had made with her Mom. I could be wrong. There is no tag on it nor a place anywhere I can find where one's been cut out. On the other hand if she didn't make it maybe I could find a match to it one day. It was special to her and now it's special to me that's all that matters to me now.
