    How sad that someone's hard work and love was just tossed out like it was nothing! I am so glad you rescued them; they deserve to be loved and cherished, not discarded. Good for you.

    Awesome Rescue and Recovery!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
    They are beautiful. And someone can definitely use them.

    I am so sad for the person who had no appreciation for what they had or were giving. Thank you for the rescue.
    Hugs!!!!! Many Blessings!!!!

    I just love using those old utility quilts. I buy them up at auctions....and use them on my bed.

    I love looking at them everyday

    Apparently they did not realize how much love & work went into making these. I'm so glad you're giving them a new home!

    Thankfully you spied these two and were able to salvage them. It's so sad how we waste so much in this country.

    They are both beautiful! So glad you rescued them and they are owned now by someone who appreciates them.
