Love yard sales but don't generally find too many sewing things, till last July when I found a box with a Crazy quilt sitting on top. It needs a lot of mending, but then I looked in the box underneath it and bingo. Lots of hand done tulip blocks, bonnet lady blocks, more crazy quilt squares, a kewpie doll quilt top, and many pink multi-colored squares to make into a quilt. I have to do more satin stitching around the tulips and bonnet ladies, but have already purchased fabric to make the sashing between the blocks. I am going to go back to that sale as it occurs every July.
