I have never done an item auction before so bear with me!
Please go to my blog site to see the quilt that is up for auction. You can e-mail me to get a #-number and then I will have your e-mail address.
My blog site is www.melodynotes-melodynotes.blogspot.com
I am placing this sweet vintage double wedding ring lap quilt up for bid. The top came from Texas and was made from what I was told around 1930. I lined the quilt with unbleached batting and on the underside I used a very soft all cotton sheet. The quilt is bound with very narrow seem binding. My stitches are small and even for the most part. This quilt is all hand stitched and it took me quite a while to complete. The colors are marvelous! Sky blue and crisp white!
The quilt measures roughly 51-inches by 38-inches---
We are a smoke free home.
I will keep a running bid every day on this post and on my blog.
And this is how I will have it listed:
Example:
Bidder #1------------------$25.00---------02/20/10
Bidding will begin on Saturday, February 20th and will conclude the following Monday, March 1st at noon central time.
The highest bidder will win the quilt then I will notify her via
e-mail what the final bid was-she can forward a check or money order and when that is received I will post the quilt (flat rate box with tracking and insurance) ship it free of charge.
I hope I covered everything and that it make sense the way I have it set up!!
I will open the bidding at $25.00
Good Luck Ladies!

What a lovely quilt. I posted a reply on your blog, but it wouldn't let me publish it. Such a striking pattern in two colors, you did a lovely thing, finishing it up.
