    So glad you rescued it. I love finding old quilts that are loved nearly to death...little holes, stains and fading don't bother me. I like to think about the lady who made it, and how she would like it if someone continued to love her old quilt. You are very lucky to find this one. Good score!!

    Lucky you! I agree that maybe the church ladies would like to see it and see if any of their acestors' names are on it.
