what a find i made yesterday, one of those meant to be happenings ......
arrived in Centennial Wyoming on Thursday evening, reunion festivities didn't start till dinner, on Friday, so we took of an drove through the snowy range, still lots of snow, to Saratoga .......
visited the Saratoga Museum, picked out a couple books to buy, talking to the lady for a long time .....anyway her internet had crashed and she had to reload her Square on her Ipad, was taking forever ...... asked where else should we go see and then we'll come back, mentioned a couple, first was a craft/thrift/antique mall ...... nothing much ..... then this quilt caught my eye, well actually there were two but this was my favorite! 1870's Hit or Miss $200
rang it up, nothing working there either...... now i'm in a panic, can't leave without it and can't come back ....... ahhhh where's the nearest bank, hope they're working, Yes! got cash, went back got quilt, a little green pudding type cup, possibly Baur, but i love the green ...... Oh! and the books .......
hand quilted in black, is that me or what!
pieced together fabric to make the little block ....... love it .......
the backing fabric ....... wonderful .......
