It is a beauty. All the colors against the white make it look so "crisp & clean" looking. You did a wonderful job.

This is a good question. Since it has so many flaws, a few small stains, and the top fabric is still somewhat fragile, it won't be donated as a comfort quilt. I washed it after binding and it didn't fall apart, so that's good, but I don't think it should be handled a lot. For now I'm just going to hang it on the balcony railing (inside) and admire the vintage fabrics and design. Later on it may find another home. At least it's not shut away in a box anymore.
