We've had it ever since I was a kid, so there are definitely some wear and tear, but the thing is virtually stain-proof.

It's so neat to see the vintage fabrics--my favorites to gape at are the hand quilted beauties you find at the super hipster shops on the east side of PDX. The thought of hand stitching an entire quilt (even lap size) is mind numbing. Very fun and well-sewn quilts!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09560209717561079482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-76259652981370617692014-05-21T19:20:47.358-07:002014-05-21T19:20:47.358-07:00Seeing these makes me want to visit my grandmother...Seeing these makes me want to visit my grandmother.
