    I drove a friend to the doctor's the other day and this antique quilt was hanging outside of the office. It is approximately queen sized. It is beautifully framed behind glass. No sign stating the provenance.

    Wow, great quilt and nice they are keeping it protected from dirty hands. Hope it is secured well to the wall.

    Finding that beautiful, simple quilt was your reward for helping a friend Nan. Pity it doesn't have any clues as to it's maker or age.

    I would have to call the nurses at the office and find out. I'm sure someone knows and also they would be more than happy to pass on the compliment to the creator.

    Thanks for sharing it. My former doc had quilts by his mother in law all over HIS office.
