    It's hard to see a quilt that someone put so much love into ended up at Good Will; however, the irony is that it found a much better home, where it will appreciated for what it is. Good find.

    Oh what a pretty quilt and a great rescue!! I have just never understood how people can just give away family treasures!! My husband and I are really into genealogy and truly treasure every scrap of family history we can find! We also love perusing 2nd hand and antique shops and always find tons of personal vintage photos. We just can't understand how family members can just throw away pieces of family history, especially photos! To me a quilt is exactly the same thing a family treasure! If the someone doesn't want a quilt that may have been gifted, either give it back to the quilter or another family member or quilter!! I just don't get it!! scratching my head here!

    How sad that someone felt it was not worthy to keep. Lucky you came along and saved it. It is beautiful!

    Wow - that is some find. I'm always checking out the Goodwill store and all the other thrift stores around town. You just never know what you might find.
