You... found that at a thrift store?!

what an amazing find! (Seriously. that's a lovely handmaid quilt. whoever gave that up...)

$7, completely covers a queen sized bed with a nice amount of drape. Someone spent a good amount of time making this and it’s super precise. Signed and dated in one corner.

I'm glad you gave it a nice home, where it'll be loved by a cat.

I'm scowling at whoever dumped it though. (my mom was a quilter, I've seen her make hundreds so I have an idea of what goes into them. It's a lot of work and care and love. and sometimes, a lot of frustration and seam rippers.)

Beautiful quilt. I love those fabrics.

What's the year?
