I am so glad you rescued it because I know you’ll take good care of it. I am curious, though — I’ve never been to a venue like this and if I ever stumbled across a treasure like that, I’d have no idea how much to offer. Would you mind sharing a ballpark of what these antique quilts sell for?Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04214091162157757315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-61693590392536413422019-07-06T10:16:07.457-04:002019-07-06T10:16:07.457-04:00Your lucky to be back east where such finds can be...Your lucky to be back east where such finds can be found.

The fair looks like a great place to visit and see such wonderful quilts. I live in an area with a large Amish community. Though I am not drawn to make quilts with tiny pieces that fit together perfectly, I love seeing them. There is so much to do and so many places and events to go to at this time of the year I limit the time I am on the internet. It happens naturally. I'm coming back now that the heat and humidity are here.<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-39579583298500247132019-07-03T08:20:47.513-04:002019-07-03T08:20:47.513-04:00What a wonderful post!

Last Summer went by with too much time at the longarm and not enough enjoying the weather. I'm determined this year to make the most of Summer. I get what you mean about blogging....I've not done much of it lately. I took a self-imposed hiatus and now it is difficult to get back at it. Have a wonderful rest-of-Summer!

There has definitely been a blogger slow down of late. It happens every summer and I cross my fingers it's not permanent for all my fave bloggers! Your link-up is open for several more days, so I'll try to link up later in the week. You scored some wonderful quilts! I would have floated home too. Both are exciting, but that prim look clam shell border is exactly what I've been eyeing lately. Going to have to incorporate it into a quilt for sure.:)audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102559813211702736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-78160291882319950592019-07-02T15:03:33.347-04:002019-07-02T15:03:33.347-04:00So pleased to see you, Julie!

You found some true treasures. It would be so much fun to attend something like this with you. I learn so much just reading your blog, I can't imagine how much more I'd learn by trailing along behind you. I've thought of you often, my dear.

I go into detail about this top that I found and the type of fabric that it seems to be. I would appreciate any comments you have about it. I’m thinking it might be Amish. I just bought a copy of Clues in the Calico by Barbara Brackman to try to identify that and my other 19th century quilts.PaulaB quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03850498636712774853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-15604231361940012272019-07-01T19:58:47.230-04:002019-07-01T19:58:47.230-04:00Looks like a fun day, and the quilts you brought h...Looks like a fun day, and the quilts you brought home are wonderful!

I especially love the Ocean Waves one with the pinks and browns. It looked like a lot of fun, especially when you didn't need to go alone. You seem to be pretty good at dating fabrics and quilts.

I have been sidelined with a respiratory virus my husband brought back from his Grand Canyon trip. Fever, cough, aches, the whole nine yards. I love the Ocean Waves quilt.
