The size of 44x66 would consider it more of a crib size or throw for a twin or it makes a great wall piece too. The condition is good and it does have some age or storage spots,, as shown. There is some light wear on some of the applique pieces, but if just using for a display quilt, it works great. It is all hand quilted at 6-8 spi and also the applique is all done by hand.
