I went to a Fire Dept yard sale today and bought a few things. The picture is of a Hand pieced spool quilt. Some of the fabric spools are made from feed sacks. It is tied with yarn, no binding and the "batting" is pieces of old blankets. The back is flannel. I think I paid way too much for it, but I couldnt pass it up....grand total for it...$1.00. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Sometimes this pattern is called the Apple Core. You have a nice treasure there. Thanks for sharing with us.

I am hand sewing one just like that! I call it an apple core block. I enjoy it, but who knows when I'll ever finish it! You have a nice prize there!
