Antique Store Find -Vintage 1940's Girl Quilt

 

Four block view.

Hello, there!  I don't know about you, but one thing I am always thrilled to find are unique vintage quilts when wandering around antique stores.  (Especially if I can buy them at a low price.)

I purchased this adorable 1940's quilt recently.  It features sweet little girls dressed in typical feedsack fabrics of the time.  Each one was hand-embroidered.  Other than a small stain on one of the blocks, the quilt is in pristine condition.  I'm definitely chalking this up to a great find.

Aren't these little girls adorable?  They represent a simpler, more innocent time. I think that is what I really love about them.

Until next time,
