Oh how wonderful! You've made such a beautiful quilt. It honours the original maker of the blocks. And the blocks came so beautifully clean after soaking. It was just meant to be. Great work.

Wonderful find, great quilt, so lucky that the fabric hadn't rotten in a hot attic.

I love it! You made a wonderful choice in that dark fabric for the setting, and putting the blocks on point makes it especially attractive. Too bad the person who abandoned those blocks will probably never know their delightful destiny.

I, too, want to know about that soak product, please!
