    That must be the deal of the year. What a great find, too bad they didn't have 14 more.

    What a beautiful Quilt! sooooo glad you rescued her!

    And on another note... I just have to say how nice it is to be with so many people who have an appreciation for quilting, and all the OLD and new quilts. I have been a collector for a long time! So many more people, just dont GET it! Thanks all!

    Isn't it nice that this old quilt finds a home with someone who appreciates the work that went into it?

I almost lost my breath, got out my dollar and left. I got the brown spots out with oxyclean...don't think it was rust;, washed her on gentle, put her in the dryer for 10 min and hung her to dry. Isn't she great?????
    What a wonderful find!! She is beautiful and she was meant for you to find her!! :thumbup:
