    That is so gorgeous! The colors are so soft--the soft that comes with age. I do love it! You saved it! What a treasure!

    I love your quilt! It is a beautiful treasure. So glad you were able to refurbish and restore it. I have a family quilt my mom gave me that is over 100 years old that also needs some TLC and repair but I'm not sure how to begin or even if I should. For now I just admire it the way it is.

    a wonderful treasure and please add a label to let the next generation know where this quilt came from and how you reborn it. Great work.

    Great job! This is one of those chores I hate to do although the result is so nice.
