    Hi everyone
    This post is what I sent a couple of weeks ago

    http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-61492-1.htm

    Since then I gave the owners all of your ideas and they still wanted me to put a backing on it and hanging sleeves.

    You can't tell from the pictures but there are two sleeves, one on top and one on the bottom. Took it to them yesterday and they were very pleased with it.

    Hope you like it. Hope it gets posted right.

    The front

    So, you didn't quilt it? Just put a backing on it?

    I love it, its very beautiful. Very unique.

    No they didn't want it quilted, or even a binding.

    It's beautiful. Were you able to find out where it originated? I really love the workmanship.

    I think it was made in Peru and there is a story about the mountains and jungle and farming.

    I'm sure it will be a prized posession in their home.
