not a quilt but something I embroidered in the 80's with
antique beads. this took me 54 1/2 hrs.
dry cleaner would not touch it so I turned it
inside out and threw in washer. worked fine.
has been washed many times with no problems.
each section is hand tied down.

I think I have a vintage pattern for the the quilt.
I picked it up at an estate sale last year with that in mind
or maybe a wall hanging.
