This quilt—-THIS QUILT—-Oh! This is a great one! We can learn so many valuable lessons as modern makers from these old beauties, and this old quilt is no exception. The bow tie blocks are made with beautiful 1930s and 1940s scrap fabrics and feature a purple center or knot. You are going to love this one!

I just love this one, but it will break your heart. I can’t remember where I got this quilt. I think it was from an auction. Maybe it was a yard sale. Either way, not remembering tells me I didn’t pay much for it. That’s kind of how my mind works. In a way, I feel bad because this old beauty has been abused and forgetting about it, yet again, isn’t the way I like to treat quilts. So let’s give this old quilt some love, shall we?
