A $10 vintage Scrappy Quilt that was almost ruined.
About 5 years ago I purchased this quilt at the Canton Flea market. It was very dirty with large numbers written with Magic Marker and black rubber marks from grocery carts all over the top. I absolutely loved this quilt and was determined to get the black off. I have no clue how many times it was soaked and washed and I used every known cleaner there is, but it finally came off. It is so much prettier in person and it is completely quilted by hand. It is all HST's and the maker had to have a design wall to do it properly. I sure wish there was a label so I could thank the woman. I just wonder how could anyone do that to a quilt like this ? Hope you enjoy. BTW, each HST is about 2 inches sewed.
