It's way to big to frame. It does have a lot of really worn places. The sashing is so thin you can see through it. There are big holes with the batting coming through. Some one did put a lot of work in the quilt. It was the type of quilt my MIL would have made. I hung it on the fence yesterday to air out. Needs to be aired out some more. It's to worn and holey to use, but I had to rescue it. It doesn't have any meaning to me other than it was a beautiful quilt when it was new. It's still beautiful.

Good for you !!!

Nice find!

What a deal! Love it as it is! :D :D

I washed it in a large pillow case pinned shut. Then I hung it across the fence on a matress cover pad. It turned out great. I folded it and put it across an antique rocking chair. It is so happy :D
