    This is a certainly a quilt with a history. Nice you were able to meet the challenges.

    Nice save. So little was left when my dad's house was flooded with 4 feet of mud and water in June 1965, that anything saved is now a treasure.

    Flood damaged items are almost impossible to "retrieve." You've done wonderful work and have beautiful results. Hard to tell that they had an "accident" in their former lives. YAY!

    Just love them. Sorry for your loss but you did a great job and saved these works of art.

    You have done a great job to salvage the damaged fabric.
