I was at a consignment shop this weekend to drop a few things off. On my way out the door in the corner of the shop was 3 large boxes and some bags and batting. It had a sign that read "Quilting Material" I asked the lady about it, she said somone had just brought it in less than an hour befor. She said she didn't think it was something anyone would want, So I made her an offer and it ALL came home with me! These blocks are the most beautiful works of art! It took me over 6 hours to count and seperate! I eeven found 3 feed sacks and excess pieces of them. It sadens me to see somones work just basically pitched! Now I need to figure out what I am going to do with them.

oh my, what a lucky find! For you and the maker. I buy old blocks in good condition, every time I find them. No quilter/piecer should have worked that lovingly hard and have it unappreciated!
