I don't know about you...
but old quilts like this one INSPIRE me!
The old fabric.
The lack of FUSSY piecing.
The idea that a square in a square block was the jumping off place...
but the square in a square block is never SQUARE!
;)
of course...
the string pieced squares make this one EXTRA special.
I LOVE string quilts.
I mentioned recently that old quilts have been finding their way to my house.
I can't say NO to old quilts...
but I am NOT a collector.
They may not STAY at my house...
but I enjoy touching....
Looking....
admiring them for a little while.
This quilt is UNfinished.
Someone began quilting it a long time ago
and I JUST might finish the job!
What do YOU admire about these old GEMS???
