    Looks like many of the fabrics were "salvaged"

    It lays flatly.

    There are 42 total - as far as I can tell, there are no holes in any of them.

    I did notice that three of them had small stains on them. (There may be more, but that's all I noticed when going through them.)

    Oh my, that is beautiful. What a great quilt they would make. What are your plans for them?

    I would like to sell them - but right now I have three or four unsold things in the classifieds - and I don't want to overdo a good thing.

    Pretty. I have some similar to that but mine didn't lay flat. Had to re-sew a lot of them. Aren't the vintage fabrics fun!
