Rescued Quilt
 

My DD rescued a quilt for me off Freecycle. She was told after they finished it, they just DIDN'T LIKE THE COLORS! I love the muted colors.

The whole quilt was there - quilt top, batting and backing, stitched around the edges but just not quilted. I opened up the seams, put it on my long arm and quilted with a loose meandering stitch.

It is a full size quilt and I think it is very pretty so thank you to the lady who made it and all the work that went into it. It is beautifully sewn.

I like it too. Lucky you!

Oh, what is wrong with the colors? Beautiful. This will go well with any decor.

So glad it landed into your loving hands. I think it is so pretty, I love the colors.

I am so happy for you ... and the quilt! Good save!

It's beautiful! All that work . . . must have been more to the story, than told.

Nessie, I tend to agree- too many times when someone lovingly put lots of work into something only to be looked at by the potential receiver as a piece of trash. Not seeing the love that is there.

Very pretty! Great rescue!!

So glad you got it----I think it is so pretty!

I think it is pretty , and it found a loving home.

Great save!

Beautiful quilt, great job finishing it. I have gotten and given items through Freecycle, it's a great group.:thumbup:

I am amazed the things people do not keep. It is beautiful. You did a great job finishing the quilt!

Lovely quilt, and great job! Kudos to you and your daughter for the rescue!

So pretty! What's not to like?

nice rescue, enjoy

I like the colors, too. In fact, I recognize some of that fabric! There are probably pieces of it in my stash! I think this is a great quilt & I'm so glad you rescued it & made it beautiful with your wonderful quilting.

It is a pretty quilt - I also wonder if there is 'more to the story'-

Nice finishing of it.

Just lovely, get job and thank you for sharing and the Rescued Have a Blessed day Ellen

It's wonderful that the maker decided to "bless" you by giving away such a lovely piece. She'd be thrilled to know that you've given it a loving home.

Glad it found it way to you rather than the landfill.

Gosh, I like it too.

I LOVE Freecycle! What a lucky find. You were meant to have such a pretty quilt. Good rescue. Thanks for sharing.

It's a lovely quilt, glad you rescued it.

That's a really pretty color combination and a really pretty quilt. Glad you rescued it.

I think it is very pretty.Thanks for sharing.

What a find!

fantastic find and recovery lovely,too

I think the colors are lovely - - - lucky you.

WOW, I think it is beautiful, I love those colors. Good of you and your Daughter to save it. Wonderful quilting.

nice rescue, I like the colors

Oh, my, thank you for rescuing this beautiful quilt.

Amazing find, and yes, I agree someone spent a lot of time making this top for someone. Maybe there was a divorce (or the receiver passed unexpectedly?) and that is why it was never finished. You did a wonderful job quilting and I know you will love it for years to come.

Great quilt, lucky you, you'll give it a good home.

It's beautiful, thanks for sharing.

Loving husband. Lucky you.

It IS very pretty

wow what a find and you finished very nicely. Love it.
