Beautiful quilt. Who could ever part with such a wonderful piece of their own history. At least now it has a good home. Good for you.

Thank you for sharing your treasure. The age of the sacks and the hand stitching are so precious.

Wow I hear this a lot and I haven't ever found a deal like that as yet but one of the ladies did send me a top that was paper pieced. Not that quality but theyare all treasures....
Hand quilted would be nice but machine quilted is also ok...
