Last year at an estate sale I came across a lovely floral cross-stitch tablecloth that was quite damaged, but I knew that it could be rescued and make it into something pretty. It has been sitting around waiting for that perfect project, and last week I was inspired to make a patchwork quilt using it.

Being mixed in are some of my favorite vintage fabrics and feed sacks that I just love. All the colors are so pretty together!
The cross-stitching is quite beautiful, and I can only imagine how long it must have taken someone to stitch all those gorgeous flowers. So, hopefully this will bring it back to life to be treasured in a new way!
I have a few more rows to go, and then it will be ready to quilt. I think this might be one of my favorite quilts that I have made. I am eager for it to be finished!

My little crocheted hearts are resting sweetly on my vintage coat rack. I was going to hang them with some pretty lace, but thought they looked cute nestled in the rack.
Wishing you a lovely day and a fabulous weekend!! ♥
