Seeing my error I'm going to say "Damn dude, that's warm."

It is a magnificent quilt.


Exactly what I thought sitting here reading w/o my glasses.

That's beautiful work. My wife spends months working on a quilt, then gives them away to friends and family. There's a lot of hours and love in quilts.

there are people who will inspect the quilt , they will value it on a paper of authenticity ,
keep this ,copy it and you will know what to insure it for.

Bonnie has done this with 8 quilts , they range from $900.00 to $2200.00.
If lost stolen or burned , you will need this verification .
I might cost $25.00-$50.00 but it is very much worth it.

you probably know this but for others here.

Never store these in plastic bags and always roll them on too an acid free tube, ,do not fold to store on a shelf.





Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

I actually had never thought of that, I don't know how you could replace something like this, I wouldn't take anything for it! Good idea, though. Smile

Definitely beautiful and amazing craftsmanship.

But the real beauty and value is not what you can see. And that's what's making the screen blurry for me.

That is truly beautiful. I know this was a labor of love from her to you - but I think she could easily sell USA themed quilts like that.
