The flea market has opened and the chicks have arrived at the farm stores…spring has come to Connecticut and decided that it is here to stay!
This is one of the three quilts I bought on opening day of our local flea market. I didn’t need any more quilts to restore, but I couldn’t resist. They needed me!

I don’t know what’s more charming the cute little chicks or the gorgeous quilts. How come I never find exquisite items like that when hit the flea markets!
Thanks! They didn’t look all that exquisite when I found them 🙂 The were in a tangled heap on the damp muddy ground… it’s a bit like searching for buried treasure!
