I have the same pattern except where the white blocks are mine are blue. My grandmother used a blue dress that she had outgrown and being the youngest she could use it for her quilt. She was 13 or 14 at the time. My grandmother died in 1984 at the age of 90 and I have had it ever since. It is over a hundred years old and only has a few places where the stitching has come loose. My mother and I repaired them and it is now just a look at quilt. I'm looking into an acrylic box but need to research if it is a viable option for storing it.
