It's a beautiful quilt and I think it must have been her best one or maybe even a wedding quilt? Glad it has a nice label on it now!

I am obsessed with finding that pattern. I am also thinking that with the amount of applique involved that the pattern was "store bought" and not an original design by the grandmother. The search continues, LOL I know it is out there somewhere.

Beautiful. Imagine the woman who pieced this and the stories she could tell. Her hand work speaks for us. I'm glad for your BIL.
peace

How are your art skills??? Maybe we can duplicate it!! Push come to shove I'll go to retirement center and trace it!! Lol

I am glad you put a label on it. It also might be nice to write down the history of the quilt and it's owners to keep and share in the future along with pictures of him and his quilt.
