You're so lucky to have gotten this beautiful quilt from your grandmother. She was very talented and a great role model for you!

Oh you have a real treasure there. It is so beautiful, and we are honored that you chose to share it with us. She did a lot of exquisite work, and as the others have said, the edging is so beautiful and one of a kind. Thank you.

you say you don't use it, I understand not to on a bed. However if you have a wall that is sun protected, and could hang it even for your birthday month, would be a treat. It is gorgeous and IMHO I think it needs to be admired and seen some and not just stored away. It is so special, you lucky gal!
