This is a certainly a quilt with a history. Nice you were able to meet the challenges.

Nice save. So little was left when my dad's house was flooded with 4 feet of mud and water in June 1965, that anything saved is now a treasure.

Flood damaged items are almost impossible to "retrieve." You've done wonderful work and have beautiful results. Hard to tell that they had an "accident" in their former lives. YAY!
