    I recieved this quilt for my 13th birthday. My grandma along with great aunts all put this together and worked hard on it. I dont like to use it much because I want to preserve it as long as possible and pass it down to my future daughter. There are some spots I will have to repair due to the stitching comming loose, but I love this thing!
