I think a quilt in a thrift store is the saddest thing. I found one in my local store for $5. It is the size of a table topper (which is where it is now). Had one little bleached spot on it. I love it.

I feel the same way about crochet pieces. I buy everyone I see.

This little quilt says "Thank You" for giving it a new home where there is love!

hmmm i must have the mind of a child because those would have been my feelings to. Always wonder who was behind all the stitching. My honey would probably like it better if i brought home more stray quilts & less pets.
