    I agree wholeheartedly.

    Another quilt rescued. Yeah! I too cannot understand how someone could part with a treasure like that.

    Too bad she didn't want to keep "grandma's quilt"! Lucky you though, looks like a great find and a great price to boot.

    Love the colors. I would hate to see one of my grandmother'sd quilts sold for $2.

    Congratulations on an amazing find, too bad the seller didn't know the true value of the quilt, but I'm sure her grandmother would be glad it found a good home where it will be loved and cared for. I wish I had a quilt that my mother had made, but sadly, they were well used and didn't survive. I do have 2 pillowcases that she embroidered and I cherish those.
