Lots of work and lots of love went into this quilt.
|
How sweet! I'm so glad you were there to save it.
|
OMGoodness......what a sweet find!! :)
|
Thank you for rescuing it and giving it the love it deserves.
|
You found something very precious! It's just adorable. So glad that you found it to give it a loving place again!
|
omg look at all the work ... it makes you wonder what the story is behind getting rid of something so nice... well glad it got a good home now...

i again feel i need to weigh in- i have made some pretty wonderful quilts to donate to goodwill, challenge mountain, the women's resource center- hoping someone who does not have alot of funds will find them & want to take them home & have something special-
just because it was found in a thrift store does not mean it was (thrown away) , neglected, un-appreciated, i know i am not the only quilter out there who donates beautiful quilts to thrift stores on a fairly regular basis...i really never thought doing so would (induce) such negative opinions toward whom ever donated a (rescued) treasure. I donate them hoping the person who finds & buys it simply can not afford to shop elsewhere- but certainly deserves beautiful quality items to provide their families/babies/kids with. |

Really? you think of charity as throwing away?? Seriously----you don't think charities deserve nice things?? i make beautiful- expensive- much appreciated quilts for a number of charitable organizations---and have never thought of (throwing them away) ... the recipients generally are thrilled to have the opportunity to have something so special...i really (thought) that quilters where notoriously Generous-giving people- i'm starting to think i was way wrong... |
I Love this sweet treasure and have the same heart for rescuing beauty.
|
Oh I do wish that folks would put labels on their beautiful work. It was good of you to take it home.
