Was hoping to go to Cherry Hill since it's just next door to my old hometown, Moorestown. Guess I'm glad I realized it now and not the week before...Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-75177549902502586602011-03-09T14:47:09.929-08:002011-03-09T14:47:09.929-08:00Bill, I'm so sorry I will miss your exhibit at...Bill, I'm so sorry I will miss your exhibit at the NW Quilt Expo in Portland in Sept!

On the back, in all four corners is a script ink-stamped name - Araminta Tilton. I don't believe Araminta was the maker. Probably her mother or grandmother. The binding is super fine, about 1/8" and has thin cord inside. Major bargain!Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-65798694806405668582011-03-06T16:20:01.377-08:002011-03-06T16:20:01.377-08:00Please don't tell me what you paid for the mar...Please don't tell me what you paid for the mariners compass quilt.

I paid $418.76 for one, $228.51 for another, about $675 for one, and less than $160 for another. All of these quilts have much higher values.<br /><br />Can you guess which is which?Bill Volckeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212965199140126299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373996407183148608.post-84645596285406475962011-03-04T11:16:37.329-08:002011-03-04T11:16:37.329-08:00Oh, did I love seeing these quilts!

What remains is a small work of art that we should treat them like treasures.<br />When I see these beautiful old Quilds, I could cry.
