    not a quilt but something I embroidered in the 80's with
    antique beads. this took me 54 1/2 hrs.
    dry cleaner would not touch it so I turned it
    inside out and threw in washer. worked fine.
    has been washed many times with no problems.
    each section is hand tied down.

    Dreamer, this is outstanding and lovely and all the hard work. Did you hold your breath with the first laundering!
