Has anyone seen a pattern like this one?

To all who've asked--I'm going to take the measurements as best I can and do the tracing of the applique and quilt pattern(s). Patrice has offered her help (Thank you, Patrice--I'm most grateful!!!)

Not sure my eyes are that sharp...but imaginative sights come easy...love those clouds. Leslee was right it is a plain blue square...the tear as it is laid out in the pic however made me think it was an eagle...clouds again. i wonder anyone else got quilts with designs we wonder about? I, for one, find this search fascinating!

What a beautiful find!! I too would be interested in a copy of the tracing. Would it be possible to trace the quilting lines as well?
There are Kovels (Ralph and Terry) who write a weekly column on antiques. Perhaps "Ann" is related???

Me again! When studying this quilt, I noted the following:
1. The quilter used three blue flowers in the center of the quilt while the others have only two flowers; and
2. Note the placement of the stems and flowers, obviously the quilter turned the pattern over to achieve the symmetry.

Suz sharpe eye I hadn't noticed that.
When in was looking closer I notice that the 2 center groups on the top and bottom of the border are placed the same if you look at the side rows they are mirror images
