a great find! I'm with the others - the top is worthy of a good batting that won't look worse over time. Go for it!

Its funny when I looked at it outside it was folded up on a hanger. I really did not know how big or what the pattern was. My DH made sure we did not leave without it. I have a hard time when it comes to stuff like this. I never know if I want to spend the money on it. Now that I have it I am soo glad I did. Yes - the pieceing looks really good and although I don't know I would choose those particular colors I am sure we will find somewhere wonderful to put this in our house. We have quilts in almost every room now :) Thanks for the input. Now I know what my next project will be! |
I am with all tghe rest its beautiful --New bating

Beautiful quilt !!! :-D
|
beautiful i vote new batting

I think I'd take it apart & put new batting in. It wouldn't keep you very warm if the batting is all bunched up. And it wouldn't look very good, either.
