I came across an old quilt at the thrift store awhile back and just fell in love with it. A ridiculous bargain at 3.25, I could not leave it there. I contemplated a use for it and went for the easy and predictable pillow. I love it and will make another so it will be a pair. Its so homey and hodge podge looking.

The quilt has log cabins on both sides!! Someone put hours and hours of loving work into it. It had been obviously patched with fabric from different eras and many spots are in need of more work. I do think its amazing to think of who created this and where it sat and was used all these years. I am happy to put it to a new use AND, in doing so, honor the person who created it.
