Mystery Quilt Package!


Do you like surprises? I love them! Especially when you discover it's a bundle of antique quilt tops! And one has a tag dating back to 1898!

I received a message from a friend this week that her parents were moving and had a bundle of tops. Her mother had acquired them from her boss's wife who used to collect them!

Steve and I picked them up tonight, but it's too late to unwrap them. So, to share in my anticipation, I will share them with you as we lay them out. Cross your fingers for fair weather this week!

    1. It's killing me not to unbundle them! But as I can see hand stitching and raw edges, I need to take care. Shoot!

  3. HEY! She said indignantly. It has been five dates and not a quilt to be seen. What's up with that? :-)

    1. Lol - something told me I should've posted a note. We've had 5 days of rain! But all is supposed to be clear today!
