    Oh, it is beautiful!. It is also similar in design to a quilt I have that was my aunt's grandmother's. Unfortunately, that one is not in good shape. Enjoy your treasure.

    It is so beautiful. It is wonderful to have a quilt made by your Grandmother.

    Oh, what a treasure you have there. The quilt is beautiful but the binding is breath taking. Love it and take it out to hug every now and then!!!!!
