[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 16750, member: 85"]I have an unframed one hanging in my B&M. People notice it and talk about it. Some people have told me they collect them. Haven't sold mine, probably because it is not framed. I washed mine in the washing machine, and the colors came out beautifully. I used the gentle cycle, cold water with a little borax dissolved in the water first, no soap. Hung it to dry, then a cool iron on the back side. I had nothing to loose. Mine came from a filthy, smoke smelling estate. It was yellow and reeked.[/QUOTE]
