That's a treasure. The stripes and plaids give such great movement to it. =sigh= I love scrappy quilts!

It looks fabulous I sure with I had one of my late grandmothers tops or quilts for that matter.She was an awesome lady God took her home in 77 she was only 56 years old she had such a rough life.I miss her sooo much.I am 48 now was only 14 when she passed.
