    hi ladies, thought i would show you the top i hand QID. my sister sent it to me from nashville tenn. she got it at a garage sale for like $2, and never did anything with it. a lady at lovin stitches in fayetteville, n.c. looked at it for me. told me it was a 1930's. and that the lady who made it was prob well off. cause she used colored thread to sew it together. 2 strands of red, or white, or whatever color she had at the time. it had been hand sewn together, loosely. so when i QID, i tightened up the corners or where ever it needed it. thx for looking. hope you enjoy it. it was in perfect condition and i just replaced l block in it.

    Awesome quilt and I'm glad that it was in such good shape. Hard to believe that your sister only had to pay $2 for it. Someone didn't know what they had! Lucky you!
