You did a wonderful job repairing the quilt. I like the corners or the lack thereof.

You did a great job with the restoration. I would have crosshatch the background since that is the traditional way they did things back in those days. REally nice to put the history down on your quilt label.

Looks great! I think those diagonal corners add to the quilt.

Wonderful treasure! I can never bring myself to machine quilt those old quilt tops, but you did a lovely job. Congratulations!
