Quilted a thrift store find
 
2 Attachment(s)
Found this quilt top at our local thrift store for $3.99. I bought it for practice on my Juki & frame. I wanted to learn how to make a feathered wreath. One thing that I learned is that white thread on red fabric will show every mistake. I had fun with this and will use it as a quilt for the car for picnics & such. Thanks for looking.

I have a quilt top that I am not wild about-pobably why it's still just a top lol - that I may get brave enough to practice on too!!

It is very pretty, I can see two pics. Doubt I would use for or any quilt for picnics, Just me, way too much work goes into to them for that.

Great find. Those circles were a great place for the feathered wreaths.

What a great find at the thrift store and I think that your quilting is wonderful. Just remember we are our own worst critics.

That's a great find. The Red and White circles look like paper plates to me -- so IMHO perfect for use at a picnic!!!
