What a wonderful treasure you found. Sort of wish they could tell their stores but some of them would probably be heartbreaking!! Glad you were able to restore it!

Beautiful workmanship - it must have taken her/him/them quite some time to complete.
Lucky, lucky you.

Oh My God when I saw this, it is the same quilt my mother hand-stitched many years ago and I just made a label for. My sister has it in Kentucky, and is bringing it home for Thanksgiving for me and my family to see. So glad you rescued it!

This quilt is just gorgeous. My mom had started embroidering a king size like this many years ago and only just donated it recently because she said she would never complete it.

Someone else's trash was certainly your treasure. And what a beautiful treasure it is. I do believe that oxi-clean is a wonder product. Thanks for sharing.
