Great find for you and lucky for the quilt!

Great find.

Lovely quilt. It has a home now. Best wishes.

It's gorgeous. It breaks my heart to know that someone's work was so unappreciated, especially by a daughter.

OMG are people crazy? so much work to be unappreciated. lucky for you

It is really pretty!!!

As I age, I realize you can not take anything with you.....so if family doesn't want it, better to have sold it then family throwing it in the trash when you're gone. Is it so different than the people who quilt to sell at craft sales, etc.

Wow, the colors are still so vibrant. Very lucky find for you

So glad the treasure found a caring home. I just don't understand how people could not appreciate a piece of family history like this. I have a quilt made by my DH's grandmother, not really my taste, for his wedding to his first wife. No matter... it's who made it that is important. When DH & I got married, she appologized, telling me she couldn't quilt anymore - to difficult for her hands & eyes, so first marriages only. I told her I understood & it would be cherrished. She passed on a couple of years later and it is one of DH's dearest possesions.
