    Default Candlewick bedspread

    I found this at an antique store today for only $20.00. Isn't it beautiful?

    It sure is! I remember doing that for awhile, but can't remember how it's done now. That is a real deal you got there.

    Beautiful, brings back my youth and my mother who always had hand work for us to do. It keeps young hands out of trouble. Candlewhicking, will never go out of "style".

    Beautiful quilt. Just think of the amount of time that one took.
