This quilt is over a 100 years old and in VERY GOOD SHAPE .

I found Very few flaws in this quilt ..

The quilt is soft and has been used .

(See the photos below for close up shots )

Their is one star with worn shredded fabric .

Also the Green calico fabric has some minor fade .

Their is one patch that needs a few stitches .

The very egdes of the quilt has light wear .

There are very few tiny age spots .

These are very light and very few .

They are so minor I could not get them to show

up in a photo .

Just wanted to note them as they are there ..

The quilt does have a light scent of days gone bye ..

Nothing strong just a very light storage scent .

That would be expected out of a quilt over a 100 years old ..

..

May your Day Be Blessed  : )
