I found this at the local goodwill for 5$
It is a green and red with black christmas kitty fabric

Then today I found at another goodwill, for 7.99$ this really cute chicken quilt and the applique chickens have beads for eyes...

I guess I could've turned them "right side" up!
Sorry!

Oh, the chicken quilt looks to be hand stitched...with black thread
It is very cool!

I guess I neede to go to goodwill which I never thought of to find quilts like these.

awesome finds!!!

I go to look for old pyrex and quilts and fabric and old linens...

What a nice catch! I'll be stopping by Goodwill soon.

Great finds! I almost went to the goodwill today! haha I know where I will be going tomorrow!

Great finds!
Love the chicken!

Great luck!

must be from some of those 'quilt recipients from he** we talk about' - you know, "I made this great quilt and gave it to (fill in the blank) and one day I found out they gave it to the Goodwill"....

which is worse - finding out they used it for a dog bed or finding out they gave it to Goodwill...

geez

Wow!! Wonderful finds!!!! :):)

I just can't believe what people throw out. Awesome find. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Those are both so cute. What finds.

I love the chicken quilt. Goodwill has lots of treasures.
Great find.

You hit the Lotto, didn't you? I really like chicken themed quilts.

Wonderful finds...I love thirft shops and it always hurt me a little to see hand made quilts in them. I know the work that goes into them and I used to think..."how can someone just drop these off at tthe Goodwill" One day I was in our local church's thrift shop and there was a young girl there with her baby. She was purchasing what was obviously a handmade baby quilt. I know this is a terribly snobby thought...but all I could think was that I really hoped she would take care of that quilt. Then I heard her talking to the clerk about how when she was young her mom used to quilt and they all had blankets she had made them. But her mom was "gone" now and she had no one to make a quilt for her son. She said the one she found reminded her of the ones her mother used to make and she liked to think mom had a hand in her son getting this one since she couldn't be here to make one herself. Made me see things so differently..that our quilts maybe be blessings that we done't even know about. Changed the way I look at giving quilts..that is for sure.

My local friends and I do a bit of quilting and we found several tops and one big quilt at the Goodwill. Then I heard a gal at the beauty shop say she was self employed. She hired to folks who have just lost loved ones and do not have the heart to clean out after the departed and she says they say......give them to Goodwill. So, maybe should the previous owners had a choice, they wouldn't have been given away. I love these finds. And I cherish mine, that's for sure.

At least all that work isn't lost! huh

Would love to shop at you goodwill............. great find.
You are so lucky.

I cannot believe that people would not cherish those.

Love the kitties.

great finds.

love them both, what an awesome find

Awesome Quilts a really great find

I like the story kbun told, I bet that young Mother will appreciate that baby quilt more than a lot of other people would. At least if someone buys a quilt at goodwill they will love it because they picked it out and they had to pay something for it. Sometimes I wonder how much a free quilt is really treasured. I give a lot of quilts away but, I carefully pick out the ones that I give away before hand and to whom.

those are wonderful! I'm gonna have to go check out my local goodwill store.

Awesome finds!!! I love them both :D:D:D

How cool. You can find such neat things at Goodwill

I wish we had goodwills here like that..WOW!!!! Great Finds....

Great finds. I often wonder about the stories behind these quilts and how the makers would feel about the quilts ending up at Goodwill. I like KBunn's story....I like to think that all those quilts end up being loved.

They were both a steal. I really like the chicken one :-P

Gee this was a great find for those prices. Lucky you to be there at the right time.

I am going to YOUR goodwill. What a find!!!

Hey, I wanted go shopping with you. Hopefully the maker of the quilts didn't see them at Goodwill. They are great. I don't do thrift shops often because I just don't seem to find the treasures other people do.

What a wonderful find!

You lucky duck! I'm glad those beauties found a good home!

Great find! I never find deals like those.

Wow -- great quilts!!! You are one lucky lady!! :D
