Have Quilt, Will Travel

 On January 4, 2025, we received an e-mail from a woman who came across one of our quilted treasures at a thrift store in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  She related the following:

"I wanted to reach out and let you know I found this beauty today at a thrift store in Santa Fe, NM. 

It is absolutely beautiful, and I’ll forever cherish it.  I feel like I hit the lottery today with this amazing little quilt.

Thank you so much."

As you can imagine, her message was a very big, and flattering surprise!






Fortunately, our business card was still attached to the quilt.  The new owner took the time and made the effort to let us know she acquired one of our lap quilts.  As you can see, she got a real bargain on the purchase of this quilt at $10.49.  In retrospect, this little traveling quilt made someone very happy and infused a few dollars into a thrift store.





As for us, it only left questions.  Who originally bought it?  How did it end up in Santa Fe, NM?  Oh well, I guess we will never know.
