OUR NEWEST FIND FOR DEB'S QUILT COLLECTION!!! It is from 1935 with an ice cream border.
This is a 1935 Dresden Plate quilt with a distinctive, yellow pattern , 4 pointed design in the center of each Dresden Plate, which is the same yellow pattern as in the ice cream cone border. This exact pattern and date was shown in one of our antique reference books. Lots of 30's feed sack materials in this one.
AND HERE IS MY MUSEUM

  Finally, after 5 years in my tiny building we have added a small show room. Now people can actually see what I have for sale, what will be for sale when refinished, and some of what I have collected? No, there is not room for everything; the building is too small already, but it sure beats what I had so call, come by and take a look. Here's a few photos of what we have put in the building thus far "more to come". A lot more has been added since i opened the museum and more details about the machines. I now have machines prior to the Civil War.
