I'm doing the happy dance! This morning I found this quilt top at a garage sale for $5! I think it's old, maybe from the 50s. It's all cotton except a few pieces of some satin like material. It is very large, 88X93. The workmanship is vey nice, points meet, seams presed etc. I can't wait to quilt it. Any ideas out there of when it was made?

How lucky were you?? I would guess from the fabrics, the 40s thru the 60s??
