Country Ads

This quilt was finished a few weeks ago, but got caught in the vortex of my dead camera card reader. pics got corrupted and i had to take them over.

This was pieced May 25, 2013 and finally quilted March 17, 2016.  i guess it marinated long enough. It is 64 x 78".

I had found some of that fabric somewhere with the white background....just a bit. probably a yard sale or something.  then i found more of it with the black background. score!!

So, i cut out little bits and pieces of the ads....and using the colors that were in the pic, put borders around them till i got a 5" square, then added the white background.
