A friend of mine brought this to me to be given away to anyone that wants to take on the challenge of finishing the hand quilting.
She purchased this beautiful quilt at a rummage sale for $10.00. She did not realize it was hand quilted and not completed. She thought she would only have to bind it and it would be done.
After she realized it was unfinished, hand quilted and so beautifully done, she has donated it to me to find a home for anyone willing to take on the finishing of the quilting.
We considered taking out all of the stitching and I would then quilt with my long arm, but the stitching is so beautiful hate to do that.
Not certain of the history, but we had a feeling it was an unfinished quilt from a grandma or mother that has passed and the relatives did not know what to do with it - therefore it went into a rummage sale.
Please any hand quilter give this orphaned quilt a good home.
Contact me if you want this quilt - if it has to be shipped - you pay the shipping and I will send it to you.

I am happy it is going to someone who will cherish it after all that's all quilters want is for someone to cherish and pass on to friends and family. If something like this comes your way again please let me know. Have a blessed day. Your friend, cheryl
