    What a beautiful find! I'll have to remember Oxy Clean for the future.

    I have this same quilt that my aunt embroidered for me many years ago. It is my favorite for many reasons. I found a kit that matched the quilt and I did a sampler to hang on the wall at the head of the bed.

    It is beautiful. I just can't imagine anyone giving that away but unfortunately I know one of my children would. It's so sad!

    You were the lucky one and I'm so glad the quilt is clean and loved again.

    What a beautiful quilt. The other ladies don't know what they missed out on. Good save.
