I agree with TS! This will now be something to really be treasured and used!

Wow!!! This machine quilting sure didn't hurt this one at all. It's simply stunning. And those ladies in the past machine quilted, too. Maybe not as often as we do, but they did do it. (I doubt they'd have been able to do what you did. That is some amazing quilting.)

This quilt belongs in a museum! It's gorgeous.

And I hope you don't mind my saying that you should have a job restoring old quilts in a museum. Your talent is incredible.
