Vintage summer spread
Well, this little number is from the now defunct, Red Barn antique store in Greenville, Alabama. I bought if for almost nothing. I bought it, not because it is beautiful, but because someone went to all the work of bleaching the feedsacks and hand appliqueing, with black embroidery thread, this summer spread. I wanted her to feel appreciated, but I know she is probably way dead by now. That is how it got to the antique store anyway...and I bought it 20 years ago!! It is a bit rough and a bit different, but I love it and now I am sharing it with you.
