OUr posters have told us of some great buys from thrift stores, but you win the "dearest find" contest.

Beautiful quilt. ...and so WHITE! It doesn't seem to have had too much wear. Since we don't really know the whys about who would have donated such a great quilt, let's just say that it was meant to be there for you to find. And what a find!!

That's OK...I love it. And it seems to like it's new home....and Tinkerbelle has decided that it is comfy...she has made her nest and snoozed for hours on it.

That certainly is a treasure!! I always look at older quilts and notions when I am out and about, you never know what you will find!! Enjoy.
