    Indiana Dogwood quilt pattern

    I am wondering if anyone might have a book with this quilt pattern in it. The reason I am asking is that I have a quilt my grandma made and I think it is Pickle Dish but someone else said it was Indiana Dogwood. They said the ID one was from Mountain Mist quilt batting way back when. I want to make a label for it but want it to be as right as it can be, I am assuming she made it circa 1930- early 40's.Will attach a picture so you can give me your opinion.

    I see 2 different blocks in the quilt. 16 patch or double 4 patch and Baby Bunting. I didn't find anything showing those 2 blocks combined in my search of Encyclopedia for Pieced Quilt Blocks. Gorgeous quilt!

    I don't know either but it is beautiful . I've never heard of Indiana dogwood. I would also like to see the one that is underneath.

    KK...Here is the link to the underneath one. My mom made it in the 30's and durn near wore it out. I have a picture of myself and my younger sis and brother sitting on it when we were kids. I have it now and am trying tomake one like it but very slow going.

    Break it down into parts: 4 patch alternated with a New York Beauty variation.

    I looked for it on ebay with no luck. It may be in one of the old Mountain Mist books, but I don't have either one. Maybe someone else could look?

    I found a similar block in "Sylvia's Bridal Sampler from Elm Creek Quilts" by Jennifer Chiaverini. It's called Oklahoma Dogwood. Yours is a beautiful quilt. Thanks for sharing.

    Personally, I don't see ANY resemblence to a dogwood, a Hoosier dogwood or any other. I'd go with the "pickle jar". OR you can always change the design a bit and find your own name.

    I'd say it's a form of New York Beauty combined with four patches. It doesn't really look like a Pickle Dish block, and I haven't heard of Indiana Dogwood before. I'd concentrate more on the maker, the time period, and whether it's hand or machine pieced than on the name of the block.
