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!
OMG how wonderfully exciting..............
ReplyDeleteIt's killing me not to unbundle them! But as I can see hand stitching and raw edges, I need to take care. Shoot!
DeleteI will be watching for your next posts! What fun!

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