Mr. Wonderful and I have hit a number of antique shops while traveling. Here are some of the quilts we spotted. None are coming home with me but it is fun to look!
This next item was a bit of a surprise. I had to wonder about the maker!
How about that skirt for your next formal party! It was all sewn from satins.


No selvages! Damned autocorrect!
At an AQS show, I saw a woman wearing an absolutely awesome skirt sewn on the bias from salvages!
I agree, this skirt is so unusual !!
But I really loooove the quilt just before it !!
OH, I love the bow tie and the blue and white. They both look like they were snuggled a lot. 😀
Thanks for sharing your adventures.
The quilts are all lovely,but your right on the skirt! Wonder what the reason was for making it?and I wonder if it ever was worn…. Definitely some time put into.
Thanks for sharing I love old quilts
You find such interesting things. Hope you’re having a great time.
