Look what I found at the thrift store a few weeks ago! I know, I scored big, right? It is a soft little lap quilt made with vintage fabrics, and it happens to be in beautiful condition without any holes or tears anywhere. At first, I didn’t see it hanging between two worn out plaid blankets, but as I carefully pondered each blanket, I noticed a bright line of color pressed against the wall. And, when I saw it, I immediately looked around wondering how I ended up being so lucky.
Each time I place it on my lap or watch my children play with it, I try to figure out why it was unwanted and sold for $2.50.
Odds & Ends:
I’m busy preparing for a little craft project demonstration, which I am leading on Saturday at the grand opening celebration of Cradle in Northampton. I’ll post some pictures of the event. It is bound to be warm and lovely since it is being organized by the wonderful Katie Rubinstein!
I’m off to bake for curriculum night at Chick’s school tonight, which I’m so excited to attend. I love hearing all about what she is studying and exploring.

What a lucky duck and for $2.50! Cool find.
What an awesome find! I couldn’t help but giggle when reading how you wondered why nobody wanted it, because I often wonder about the history of items I buy also. Just glad I’m not alone ;D
What craft demo? Can I come and watch?
Oh, lovely score, it’s beautiful!
Lucky find indeed!
