The yellow had caught my eye and I just had to stop after the meeting and take a closer look. I learned my lesson as this happened several months ago when I saw a cool quilt hanging and I didn't stop. I went back later and of course the quilt was gone. Here are some close ups of the blocks. I love the combination of the prints with the yellow and black then the teal wide sashing just sets it off. The quilt was marked $175 and no I did not buy it.
I especially like this block where the maker used the black and white striped fabric
They also had a few other quilts for sale. Dresden plate $125
A rougher Dresden plate $85
More quilts marked $125
And this very rough tied piece for $40.00
What did I buy? I have always wanted one of this style of chair. Several over the years have slipped thru my fingers, but I had never seen one with a padded seat. I will have to clean up the chair a bit including getting some new padding and putting new fabric on the seat, but the chair was not expensive and it makes me happy.
That first quilt is eye catching. I have 2 oak "banker" chairs, no padded seat but they are the most comfortable chair when your back aches. Great find.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your chair find! You'll have to be sure to show us how it looks after some TLC and new padding.
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is a beauty as is your chair. But then, I love a nice wooden chair.
