You should be very proud. Was the quilt hand pieced or machine pieced. Thank you for telling us how you cleaned it, You are a lot braver than I am, I would not have chanced the hot water on the quilt. So glad it worked out for you.

Both quilts were hand pieced. The fabric was exceptionally tightly woven,compared to others I've worked with. Knowing me...the water wasn't very warm...more like baby bath temp.
