Default Broke my pledge

[ATTACH=CONFIG]590198[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]590200[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]590199[/ATTACH]Promised myself not to buy anymore quilts from estate sales, but I'm weak.......altho it is "store bought", it is intensely quilted, surely comulter driven, but something I would not do.....two shams, quilt is 90x90, with scalloped edges, in perfect condition......because it was last day of sale 50% of marked price......so I paid $9.00! Isn't that sad...
you probably cannot clearly see the quilting, but it is quite beautiful...and as you can see the two cats approve-brought their babies (stuffed) up to check it out with them! Was this a good thing, I think so!

Seriously? $9? Of course you had to get it. It's an awesome find and everyone (feel pretty confident saying this) on the board would have snatched this up. Crazy bargain...

It is gorgeous, I would have taken it at several times more than you paid. Just having it would be worth a lot more to me.
