Was at a Restore place today, for Habitat for Humanity, and they had all kinds of great tables, some from apparently local hotels who are redoing the rooms. Even had 3 sewing machines in the sewing cabinets. If you have that store in your area, please check them out. I walked in several months ago, saw a quilt in a dining room hutch with the glass shelves wrapped in. I unwrapped the glass shelves, took the quilt to the counter and ask how much. She went to get the man in charge, he came out, handed me the quilt, and said, "We don't sell things like this, please enjoy it".
So I got it for free, went home and looked really good at it, it was signed and dated 1937. Had to take it to quilt club for "show and tell" and some of the quilting girls said they just found another place they have to check out. They laugh at me but I really enjoy hunting down the old quilts which I enjoy very much.
