I cleaned out the most disgusting closet ever and, boy, oh boy...was I ever rewarded! I discovered a long ago forgotten huge bag of things that once belonged to my grandmother. Imagine my surprise when I discovered 2 beautiful, old handmade quilts. One is almost 150 years old! It scares me...I'm terrified I will destroy it because it seems to be very fragile. More on that one in a later post.
The other one is not quite as old...probably around 75 to 80 years old and it's in good shape! So...I wanted to find a cool way to use it and make sure it's a part of my home...here's what I came up with:
I never use my dining room so I don't have to worry about spilling anything on it...yet it's still prominently displayed. I'm so excited!!!
For those of you snowed-in up north, I hope you are safe and warm and nesting like me!
All the best,
BJ

That's a beautiful quilt! I'd be terrified to ruin quilts that old.
