For those of you who know Marash Girl, you may know that she loves to go yard-saling (or as Marash Boy calls it, "yard-sailing"! Yes, she would often take the youngest of her four children (now that Marash Girl finally had time to go yard-saling) and literally sail through the roads of Wilbraham, looking for the unusual, the bargain, the deal!
Probably the most beautiful item Marash Girl has ever purchased at a yard sale is a handmade patchwork quilt. But why would the seller be selling such a lovely item? Actually, the seller wasn't selling the quilt; she was giving it away. Giving it away? Why?
So Marash Girl asked. And here was the answer.
"My husband's cute young secretary quilted this patchwork quilt coverlet and gifted it to him this past Christmas. I'll be darned if I'm going to sleep under a quilt that was painstakingly handmade for my husband by another woman, and a beautiful young one, at that!"
