Old Quilts from Arcadia, Florida

Spent the day in Arcadia, Florida a little town with LOTS of Antique Shops !And I found Quilts. 

Always ASK, before taking photo's in anyone's shop.Not one No !

All hand done - this would have been purchased, but they didn't take ANY charge or debit cards. and I NEVER have cash ! 

Ironing board full of quilts

This shop owner didn't know what to do with quilts !

Always check the condition, open it up, touch and look !

These are water marks ??? I don't know if I could get these out?

Simple 9 patch set on point, with a GREAT blue border.

A Great Quilt ! all Hand done
