I loved this primitive quilt the moment I saw it. Problem was, it was in the hands of someone else. I was determined to have it, deciding it was a matter of will. From several aisles away, I just kept looking at her, quietly repeating, "Put it back. Put it back. Put it back." She was with a group and on the phone with another. "Put it back." My heart jumped as she put the quilt on its hanger, hung it up and walked out of the store. In seconds it was in my hands. Apparently, she (or her friend on the phone) had decided $8.00 was too much to pay for this country quilt.
Who doesn't love dogs?
The big appeal for me was the folk-art quality of the puppies.
They were hand appliqued and quilted - in a Baptist fan design.
Circa 1940
