only thing I found all day was this quilt top.
She really believed in a scant 1/4 seam. I washed it and had to repair about 11 blocks (seams came out). But it is a pretty scrap quilt.

Oh forgot... It was $10.00

Awesome deal, great job repairing those seams.

roseOfsharon 06-12-2011 03:46 PM

Very pretty and especially for $10.00! Maybe you can Quilt over the top at the seams with a decorative stitch to secure the seams. That might be a lot of work though.

Claddaughquilting 06-12-2011 03:46 PM

Wow! Lucky you! That's my kind of quilt...

BeeNana 06-12-2011 03:49 PM

Im glad you said that about the scant 1/4 seam. My teacher in my quilt class keeps telling me to make my seams scant but then my blocks come out uneven so I'm doing a 1/4 and now i have another reason to want to do a full 1/4 :)

Great find! I commiserate with her on the scant, with all those four patches and QSTs I'd be doing it too!
