Project Liinus in Thrift Store
Yesterday while out and about I had time to kill so I stopped in Salvation Army just to look around. Checking out the linens for anything I could use as a quilt backing I spied a cute little girls quilt. Pinks with BEAUTIFUL machine quilting. I was then shocked to see a Project Linus tag sewn to the backside of it. Why would a parent give it away? Didn't the child want to snuggle with it? It wasn't to the parents liking? Had the child out grown it? It wasn't worn, torn or tatered. In all the quilts I've sewn for this organization I never once considered one ending up in a thrift shop. I'm still mystified....and a little heart-broken.
