    Carol's Aunt passed away, so this is pretty special for her.
    It is a beautiful quilt BUT please let your friend know that she can NEVER wash it as the crayons will wash off and spoil what her Aunt Carol did for her.

    This is wonderful. What a keepsake!!!! Especially unique because it is a 1 of a kind. Not another one like it in the world.
