As If...

As if I don't have enough unfinished quilt tops of my own, so what made me purchase this vintage top from Possibilities?  I don't know, but sometimes something just calls my name and I can't ignore it!  It could have been the sweet little hand stitched 9-patch blocks, or the beautiful pinks and browns, or maybe even the wonky setting, but I think it was the combination of all those things and the fact that this top needed a good home that made me want it for my own.

Poor thing needed a good home! I am sure when you get around to finishing it off will be wonderful!

I highly recommend Blue Ribbon batting for this lovely top. It will allow it to shrink a bit and soften in a wonderful way. Happy Sewing!

And I am so happy to know that the flimsy from P's mother's closet has a wonderful new home . . . can't wait to see what you do with it!
