    Thank you all!
    This quilt and the other (posted too) also were hand quilted by my grandmother in the 1930's!!
    she quilted as long as her health allowed, her nursing home was kind enough to give her room to set up her quilting frames. She passed away in 1976. To this day I miss her bunches. JB.
