    You have saved a wonderful ANTIQUE hand appliqued beauty! This quilt is a treasure and really needed a home in which to shine! Its creator was a domestic goddess! It would date to the early 30's. Lucky you! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    You got a bargain and it is a very pretty quilt. It looks hand stitched to me.

    I agree with everyone else - it is a beautiful quilt. And what a great find on the machine. Be sure to post pictures in the Vintage Machine Pictures thread.
