I like the pattern of the quilt, too much red for me but still it is a pretty quilt and what a great thrift store find.

Charity is a good idea, but the top had some problems with seams. I tried to repair them, but some still show. I think whoever made this quilt top spent a lot of time on it and it doesn't look like it would have been easy with the circles & the angled strips. I don't know if the seams were coming apart with age or if it had been handled roughly. With the repairs I wouldn't feel good about giving it to anyone.
