Looks pro to me! Wonderful quilt. I love quilts.

I have a very old, solid black one so old and soft and graying it is absolutely threadbare and falling to pieces. I bought it years and years ago at an antigue shop just because it was old, super-soft and black - had never seen an all black quilt. It looks awful now though! Have tried to throw it away so many times but when it comes down to taking the trashbag with it in it out, I can't! It's just the softest, oldest, warmest, comfiest thing there is but I can't let a single other soul see it - it's that shabby. But it's so soft is just clings all around when you get under it. Tibbe absolutely loves it and runs for it if I ever do bring it out in very cold weather to cuddle under on the couch in the den. But the minute the doorbell rings, I hide it on the Utility Porch!!! It's too embarrassing to let anyone else see it. But even old, ugly quilts are still the best just like the new, pretty ones. I love the crazy quilts and those that tell a story on them most, I think.
