Garage Sale Quilts!

My favorite summertime activity is garage "saling".  Hope that's a word because I use it often!  I find the best fabrics, blocks, sometimes orphaned quilt tops, for amazing prices.  I found what were only pieces of this quilt a couple of years ago and just finished hand piecing last summer.  It took a LONG time to finish.  It is only lap size, but perfect for a little girl.  I bought it for $2!!!  Once on the frame it came alive.  I used a digitized computer border and just a simple loop for the center so I could hold down a few corners and seams.  Once again, my granddaughter and daughter were perfect models ;)
