There is an event, both Fall and Spring in Oklahoma City
Yep. It’s quite an Event.
This was the second time we had the chance to see what there was to see, and really, we did manage to find a few things to store away in the ‘Christmas Closet’. There was a lot that we passed by, but almost without fail, my SIL and I gravitated towards the booths with antiques.
When my MIL had decided it was time for sitting a spell, and Wonderful Guy had gone to fetch the car for us, SIL and I dashed into ‘one last building’ for ‘just few more booths’.
And there I found this.
A quilt backed with flour sacks.
Pieces….pieced.
Really fun patterns.
I had to leave it with SIL along with the postage to ship it to me. We flew and had packed to the max for the weekend. It will be a special treat when it arrives, all delayed gratification, and all.

What a wonderful find! Sounds like a fun event/place!
That is a very fun find! Take me with you , next time!
Now that's what I'm talking about -- definitely my kind of quilt, and from my home state. It's a wonderful find.
I've made that pattern before from old blocks (except I made the circles with plain muslin), but I LOVE this version with is crazy print scrappiness. This just reinforces my belief that it is always wise to check out just a few more booths.
That's a great find - and a lovely quilt. How much was it, out of curiosity ?
I've never seen a real flour sack backing like that! I love stumbling upon a unique find such as that lovely quilt!
