And probably very thrifty, using up the last of ever bit of every piece - I like that.<br /><br />I can't resist old quilt tops if they are reasonable - the thrift store that I've been buying them at has gotten wise and now has tripled the price - drat - I won't pay much. I get some that are old and frayed - the best deal I got was a whole quilt for 25 cents. A lady had set up a yard sale along the side of the ponds near our house - everything was laid out on an old old quilt. All prices were 24 cents, when I asked her the price of the quilt she said - 25 cents. Well I couldn't get the rest of her yard sale off that quilt fast enough. One end is frayed - like it was wrapped around something in a truck and flapped in the wind on a long journey. So far I've just fold it so you can't see the fraying - not sure if I'll ever try and fix it. <br /><br />It is a tulip design that I'd not seen before - in softest green, pink, blue and white solids. And each block has someone's name carefully embroidered on it - Mrs. Albert Jones, etc. And one square has 1933 embroidered on it - I was very lucky.JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3041588012248537691.post-30118762046768104152013-11-27T15:38:47.959-06:002013-11-27T15:38:47.959-06:00You are so lucky.
