I asked someone the question about why she was selling me her grandmother's beautiful hand-sewn quilt top and the answer was simply that there were many others, and "You can't keep everything." There is wisdom in that, especially if owning the item will brighten up someone else's world a bit. It's like spreading sunshine from her mom. Enjoy it.

Since losing my husb. 4 yrs. ago & knowing I have to sell my home in the next yr. or so, I can see the huge job I'll have emptying it after being here for 38 yrs. That may be the position that seller was in & the burden was greater than the sentiment.
You found a beaut. quilt & I think fate brought you to it. At least it's now in loving hands.
