    Wow, that was a great buy. I wish I could find these sales that some of you go to--all our stuff seems to be overpriced cr**.

    What a wonderful buy. It sure looks like feed sacks to me. Also I am sure it is hand stitched

    That is a beautiful quilt, and yes at least some of the fabrics look like feed sack fabric. I love the pattern.

    What a great find for $5.00. Would have snapped that up in a heartbeat. Congrats to you. It is definately hand-quilted. Probably from the 50's.
