Smile Quilts from Goodwill clothes

I often get fabric from Goodwill clothes. This quilt is made from a Lilly Rubin (?Lilli Rubin?) size 4 dress. Almost too pretty to cut up. The dog is from a 1950's "Cashmeresh" coat, the perfume bottle is from various silk blouses, the label, a man's cotton shirt, and the glass is vinyl from a tablecloth cover.
Today I bought (another!) prom dress and a couple of silk blouses for a specific quilt - purple!
I do think that it depends on the quality of the Goodwills in your area. Some towns stink, but mine is GREAT!
I also just love "the hunt"
