    My Grandma started this quilt in the 1970s around the time I was born, then stopped working on it, and began working on other things. She died in 1999 and the quilt never got completed. I would like to finish it. I need some suggestions on how to go about doing it.

    It is a treasure. If you cannot finish it, frame it

    There is a quilting shop here that sells fabric that sells 1970s styles that matchs the fabric in the quilt, where it can be finished. I bought the book yesterday with the pattern in it, I think I can do it.
