Somebody is smiling down on you, 'cause nobody still alive gave that beautiful work-intense quilt to Goodwill. I do so hope it wasn't a family member either. I prefer to think that all family members are dead and gone and someone bought this old house and in the attic, there was a trunk and they took the whole trunk and it's contents
to Goodwill without even looking in it.

You found something like that at Good Will? Wow, double wow!

I'd shop at Good Will all the time if I ever found things like that.

Good for you ... being there at the right time.

What a beautiful quilt, and a great find! It is beautiful as is, but I might be tempted to take the blocks apart and sash it just to make it wider and to showcase the flowers better. However.......it is awfully pretty as it is.

Someone gave away a family treasure. Glad you could resque it! Beautiful.
