I went thrift store shopping in our hill country. I stopped at a thrift store in Comfort, Texas and found this. I only paid $2.50
It is made out of wool bak and front and has those fabulous stiches. I need to sew where it was cut so it will stopraveling. I love the colors. i will probably use as a lap quilt for myself. I love it!!! a full shot of it [ATTACH=CONFIG]55286[/ATTACH] close up of the blocks and stiching [ATTACH=CONFIG]55287[/ATTACH] where it was cut. [ATTACH=CONFIG]55304[/ATTACH] |

Oh, you are so lucky! I am allergic to wool.......
|
Great find. I think I'd add a binding all around to secure the edge,
|
Great fine.

Great find there. My grandmother made wool quilts (anything she could find went into quilts) & they were so warm. Enjoy! I lived in San Antonio for 2 yrs & we went to a flea market every Sunday for awhile. Nice areas to shop there North, going toward Austin (back in early 80s).

Great find. Glad is was rescued. You will stay warm with that lap quilt.

What a great find! Is the blocks stitched together, then the embroidery done or it the embroidery stitches all that is holding it together?
Only once did I find such a great bargain. I was in a antique shop and saw some crochet peeking out from under something else. I could see that it was the pineapple pattern. Much to my surprise when I got it out and looked at it....it was a 70 inch round tablecloth! the price was $5.95 |
How lucky you are!
