Last fall we bought a house and land at auction, it had a house and an old falling down house on the property. Both were filled with stuff. In all the cleaning, I was surprised I had never found any quilts. There were signs the elderly lady had sewn when she was alive but no signs of quilts. I assumed when the relatives went through and took the valuables out and that included any quilts.
I was in the old falling down house yesterday with some folks wanting to buy the old built ins, an old dresser and the old kitchen sink. While there, I stumbled upon a box. This is what I found. Two quilt tops.
I don't know what pattern the blue and white one is. The log cabin looks to be made of ribbon? Can I wash the log cabin?
They look to be machined pieced but I'm still a very happy camper to have found both of them.
I plan to try to repair any damage and finished them.
