I’ve been doing some cleaning and organizing. Â With that comes some decisions…do I really want to move that?? Â Do I really need that? Â Is there a home for that at the new house? Â I kept asking myself that as I sorted through quilts on Sunday.
These are hard to part with but it’s time some of these find a new home. Â I would like to them to go somewhere where I know they’ll be loved…so am wondering if any of you might like to purchase them for your vintage quilt collection. Â I will do my best to represent the quilts as accurately as possible but they are sold as is.
I’d like to be paid through Paypal if possible but can accept a personal check if needed. Â If someone purchases more than one quilt, I will work to combine shipping. Â All questions and comments please email me at rogjok@iowatelecom.net. Â Once a quilt is sold I will mark it as such.
Here’s what I have….
Quilt #1-This is a  vintage quilt in good shape.  It is completely a beautifully hand quilted.  All of the blocks are the same design and of the same print.  The blocks along the sides are one half blocks.  There are a few spots on it.  I never laundered it while I owned it and never tried to remove the spots. The backing is the same white fabric.  It is light weight.  Size on this is 66″ x 82″.
Asking $50 plus postage of $8.SOLD
Quilt #2-This quilt was bought from the same place as quilt #1. Â I am assuming the same person made both of them. Â This on is embroidered with pink flowers. Â It has yellowing and is more fragile. Â The fabric isn’t in as good of shape. Some of the hand quilting has come loose and some of the embroidery stitches as well. Â It can easily be folded to hide the flaws. Â Size on this is 82″ x 90″.
Asking $25 plus postage of $8.
Quilt #3-This is a nine patch cutter quilt in poor shape.  It is machine stitched-and machine quilted.  The edges on this are badly frayed. Size on this is 71″ x 74″.
Asking $10 plus postage of $7.
Quilt #4-Is a real favorite of mine. Â It’s so pretty…It isn’t finished and is only a top. Â I bought it with the intention of finishing it but I know I won’t get it done.
The foundation pieces that were used in this quilt are so fun. Â I love the strips in it too.
Size on this is 74″ x 74″. Â It’s a wonderful mix of wools, satins and velvets.
Asking $60 plus postage of $8.Sold
Quilt #5 Â This is actually a top in not the best shape. Â It’s needs repair. Â It is 66″ x 72″. Â I loved the block design. Â It does have a couple extra blocks that come with it.
Asking $6 plus postage of $4. Sold
Quilt #6 is a WONDERFUL embroidered quilt. Â It took my breath away the first time I saw it. Â It is 84″ x 97″. Â It is completely and beautifully hand quilted. Â I can’t find a thing wrong with it.
I am guessing that after it was stitched it was just put away….It’s so pretty.
Asking $110 plus postage of $10.SOLD
Quilt #7 is a Grandmother’s Flower Garden. Â It is 68′ x 84″. Â It is hand pieced and hand quilted. Â The binding is not in the best shape. The backing is pink.
There are spots on it. Â I didn’t wash it so I don’t know if they will come out- see to the left. Â It could easily be folded and displayed so no stains show.
We loved the border treatments on this…
Asking $40 plus postage of $8. Sold
Quilt #8 is a fun bright one. Â It is hand quilted in red big stitch. Â It’s full of all sorts of scrappy goodness. Â The edging is in need of repair-A couple of the blocks need help too but I do think it is repairable. Â It is 86″ x 73″. Â The backing is fun too. Â I loved that print.
Asking $15 plus postage of $10.Sold
I hate seeing these all go but knowing someone else will love and take care of them is a huge relief. Â I’ve always felt guilty about them being here and I didn’t get them repaired or didn’t launder them.
All questions and comments please email me at rogjok@iowatelecom.net. Â Once a quilt is sold I will mark it as such. Â All quilts are sold as is…I will answer all questions truthfully.
I am interested in #5 with the blocks. Are the blocks in good enough shape to disassemble the top to re-do it?
Does that adorable looking Beagle go with the quilt,, and how much, I just love the look on Ruby’s face.
