    We cherished our quilts, that Grammie made. They were used to death though. I don't know of any that remain. To my knowledge they were all crazy patchwork,usually with red centers,if the red meant anything I don't know what it was.

    Absolutely beautiful find. Sad that people can part with handmade things for mere pennies :-( But the quilt is lucky-it has someone who will appreciate it and know it's true value. Congrats to you on a great find and a good save so it did not end up as someone's garage floor under the car work blanket!
    Hugs
