Lessons from an Antique Scrap Quilt
I have had this quilt in my collection for about two years now and have been waiting to share it with everyone. I am not sure why I waited so long—it is a beauty. Maybe I wanted to keep it to myself for a little longer? That is probably it. Although I say this about all the old quilts I review, this really is a favorite, and possible the one that has taught me the most. At one point I was going to make this my 100th Lessons from an Old Quilt video because it is so special, but I changed my mind. The time is now to share this one with the world. I hope you love it as much as I love it.
Lessons from an Old Diamond Star Quilt
I just love this one, but it will break your heart. I can’t remember where I got this quilt. I think it was from an auction. Maybe it was a yard sale. Either way, not remembering tells me I didn’t pay much for it. That’s kind of how my mind works. In a way, I feel bad because this old beauty has been abused and forgetting about it, yet again, isn’t the way I like to treat quilts. So let’s give this old quilt some love, shall we?
Lessons from an Old Patchwork Baby Quilt
Isn’t this a great quilt? I purchased this at a yard sale. I tried to get the seller to keep it, but she said she no longer wanted it, even though it is very special to her. She did, however, tell me some information about the quilt, which is always good!
