Antique Quilt


Last year I purchased this lovely quilt top in Missouri from Jessica. I thought it was fun and quirky and still agree with that assessment. 

I finally got it sent off to Sharon to work her magic. We went back and forth a lot about how best to quilt this beauty and keep the integrity of the antique fabric. 



It looks like pencil writing on the one piece- 100? 10¢? Some things are meant to stay a mystery,

One dot block fabric is having some issues. 

Here is the backing where you can get a good look at the quilting. 




                Hand quilting would have been the better solution, but I cannot hand quilt much anymore, so at this point I think long arm quilting is better than a closet. 


Have a wonderful weekend! Sisters outdoor quilt show is tomorrow. I'll be at the Village green park around 11:30-12:00 for lunch. If you see me please stop and say hi or join us!
