I found this quilt top at the flea market recently,
for $12.
For years I've searched for something
like this, but they are always out of my
price range--it was apparently my lucky day.
The vendor told me he had bought an Amish buggy
and this quilt was inside it--the Amish
folks told him he could have it.
There are so many great vintage prints,
I love it!
There are, however, 30-some patches that are very
frayed and need replacing,
like that striped piece seen in the middle
there.
I am cutting out replacement squares
of vintage-looking fabrics from my
scrap bag.
If you have any suggestions on the best
way to remove the damaged squares and
replace with new,
I would appreciate it greatly!
