Default Rescued Quilt

A few months back I was in the thrift store looking for books and came across this wonderful quilt just hanging there on a hanger. It looked so lonely - it cried out to me - I am hand stitched and hand quilted - my owner put a lot of loving hours into me. That is all it took. I purchased the quilt. It had a price tag of $10 on it. Since I am always in the store buying books or whatever else happens to catch my eye I had a credit of $10 (so it was basically free for me-in my opinion). I love my little quilt - I fold it in half and it sits at the foot of my bed.

Unfortunately my computer will not upload a jpeg file. Don't know why. I have tried before and I am trying again but it just is not working. Any advice??

​I love a good quilt rescue story. I can only post pictures from my iPad so I can't help, sorry.

Wonderful you! It isn't everyday an old quilt calls your name and you can save it.
