Vintage Pinwheel Quilt

I found this delightful pinwheel quilt tossed in the bottom of a closet. We sometimes clean up property for folks whose relatives have died and they can`t get here to do it themselves. Most times we are allowed to keep what we want and that`s how I came across this quilt. It was by itself in a trash bag at the bottom of a closet.

Most of the fabric is from the 1950`s. I recognized familiar prints of shirts and blouses. There is a lot of wear at one end. Likely from hands pulling on it. I`m going to sew a cover to protect the fabric so I can use it and not worry about damage.

Hot and humid here. Temps are high 90`s. Not bad for August in the desert. Lots of quail, other birds and small animals visit several times a day for water. I don`t run the coyotes off. They need water like every other creature out here. I do hustle the rattlesnakes out of the yard. King snakes, gopher snakes, anything that is not a pit viper gets to stay. There was a scorpion in the bathroom two weeks ago. Hubby took care of him.

That`s about all. Hope you are all well.
