A Note from the Contributor

Maria C. Vallejo: Crochet Bed Spread Every one of us eight kids got one of these bedspreads. She found peace and calm while crocheting her days away while watching after our father in his last days. The credit for accomplishing this monumental task goes to, Maruja Noreña de Vallejo, our mom.

Condition

Good; some very light staining and small tears along the border.
