 One of my favorite possessions : )

Years ago on a trip to visit family in Alabama I bought this handmade beauty at one of the  local quilt shop for $65.00.

It was steal!

 I’ve never washed it. Afraid of the red running.  Thought you’d enjoy it. I’m planning on hanging it on a blank wall to warm up the corner. It’s been several places inthe house.  

It’s is best to keep a quilt moving. If they sit for too long in one place the fold will become permanant.

Not sure how I’m going to hang it. Thinking I’ll have to hand  sew a strip of fabric and put a dowel thru.
