    I like that a lot, very country and vintage looking.

    I have some antique quilt blocks from my great Aunt. Been wanting to frame them I think this would be the perfect way to display them. Thanks!

    That is a really cool idea. Would be great for an old quilt that is beyond repair, you could probably find enough good patches.

    I think I would do stitch in the ditch...or even try hand quilting since they are so small and also to keep the old theme . I love the idea of no binding. I am now on the hunt for an old window frame.
