Don't send me to town on an errand!
Our town isn't large, but next to the cemetery is located a small vintage items mall/shop. (Appropriate place for DPS, don't you think?)
On the way out of town yesterday I dropped by the shop just to check out the prices on Pyrex bowls (which were waaay toooo expensive), and I found these three handsewn quilt flimsies (quilt tops).
The story is that the hand pieced quilt tops were made locally by an elderly lady. The seller could not/would not remember her name.
All three were cheap!
$8.00 each!
All three need repair!
All three were lovingly sewn by hand.
I can't take them apart!
I can repair them!
I can iron them!
I may even quilt them!
And Flip is with me all the way.

They would make nice tablecloths as well don't you think? Flip has good taste.
Flip is on top of things. What a worker.
Love,

You and Flip are in for some fun. What a great find...and the time and love that was put into these, heartwarming!
