So my daughter in VA called and said a man approached her and wanted to sell some old quilt tops. She asked if I was interested. I told her that I couldn't buy anything but if he wanted to donate I'd be delighted. He didn't want to. Then I told her that I had a couple of quilts I had finished and if he wanted to allow $150 toward his tops I would trade him for the finished quilt he could have his choice of. He chose the one in the picture and brought my daughter 25 hand stitched tops.
I'm thinking this might have been a good trade. What do you think.
These are not great pictues. . The quilts are all about 65x80. I mostly just unfolded them and put them on a table to show you. I think the fabrics look like the 60's. The hand work looks good to me.
