Wow - I stopped by my goodwill today and nothing! I need people to donate quilting stuff to mine so I can get good deals too!

Lucky find. I'm always so sad when I see someones hand made quilts, lace or sweaters at a goodwill for pennies. I'm compelled to buy them even if I can't use them. Silly me.

Great find! It looks like it might be 1970's fabric. Can you date it?

I don't thing that's silly at all. There are so many things you can do with lace, and if you don't particularly have a use for the quilt, give it as a gift to another quilter.

Look at all of that polyester!! I like it. I bet that puppy is heavy and warm. Great save!!! A lot of pant suits gave their lives for that quilt. That is truely turning a pig's ear into a silk purse.
