Stopped at a garage sales on the way to work this morning. Found this great bow tie quilt top - all hand pieced. Then two tins full of buttons and a darning mushroom :). Nice way to start the day. Now do I finish the quilt by hand or machine? I hate to ruin it's charm.

Good find

A darning mushroon is used to darn socks. My Nan used to use it to finish the shoulders on coats, the points on fitted bodices and darn the elbows on jackets.
|
The darning mushroom is the wooden implement in the picture under the tins.

Very cute. I'd hand quilt it!
