I found this beautiful DWR quilt at a thrift shop. It sold everything at $1.79 a pound. Paid $7 for quilt and a few items of clothing. It is a little worn and has been loved a bit. I will continue to love it. Put it in my guest room. Will remove it when someone sleeps on bed.

Very pretty, on my to do list.
|
WOW - Just beautiful
|
We have one like it. It was made in the 1940's by ladies of my mother-in-laws "Thimble Club" those ladies made beautiful quilts. I am lucky to have 2 - the other is a pink & white Churn Dash. Just love the old patterns. Happy for you that you found it and appreciate it :D
|
I'm making one in shades of red, white and black fabrics (mostly emphasizing red).
I'm jealous--that's a great find! |
I have been wanting to make one for years now. I am afraid to try. When I saw this, I grabbed it right away.
|
Great find!
|
Very, Very Pretty.

Very pretty.
|
Great find. Isn't it fun?
|
I love the way old quilts are rescued. I will not hesitate the next time I see a quilt top or a quilt in a thrift store to pick it up, pay for it and take it home to finish or use. What a wonderful way to recycle.
|
Beautiful quilt! Glad you rescued it!
|
Beautiful! Very classic 30's looking.

Beautiful - lucky you! - I just adore seeing those quilts from the 30s and 40s - the fabric is so soothing.

I love the DWR quilts. This one is a beauty.
|
Lovely 'find', I should be so lucky. Just now, when I need more very well worn blended fabric sheets to cut for foundation for the strip quilts I make as charity projects, they are not at any of my three near-by thrift stores. Lots of things I don't need--of course. piecefully, the old one
|
OH! My Gosh!! That is so pretty and you were lucky to find it..
|
What a lovely find!
|
So glad you rescued it. I would love to make such a find at our thrift stores but their prices are somewhat high. Hard to find a real bargain.....
|
It's beautiful. Nice find!

Nice find!
