Beautiful and beautiful work. Treasure it and occassionally take a nap under it. Your Grandmother would not have wanted you to put in in a box. If you have a sofa in your den or anywhere else in the house, drape it over the back... or maybe better yet, hang it in your quilting room!... This is gorgeous!!!
