I can't believe I found this today...It is 100"x120" KING Size...
It's in great shape...It has one triangle that is torn but the rest looks great...I paid $12.00 for it. I don't know how old it is, but it looks like older fabric. This is the 3rd quilt that I have found at GW...Just wanted to share with you all...Any ideas how hold it might be?

The whole quilt. King Size

Can't help with the dating, but it's a great find.

This is why I tell my daughter to use her quilts rather than save them. SHe and SIL don't want children so one day when they are gone the ones I make them will be found at the Goodwill.

No idea about the age, but a nice save!

Are those cotton or perhaps poly knits? Maybe 70's or 80's if they are
