Perfect find for the rainy windy day we are having. Leaves are red and yellow and flying all over the place. I thought I would run over to the thrift and glad I did. Washed the quilt two times and it came out perfect. Smells all sweet now.

Nancy, How did you wash it? By hand, by machine, soap?

Just adding a little note for washing quilts that might have a bit of a musty smell from age and dampness...I put about a cup of vinegar...just regular ole vinegar...in with the soap when washing. It removes that musty smell. It has worked with several things I have used it on. Hugs, Mary
