    It would be neat to make a pattern off of it. It is unique. Really a much better design than any Chinese quilt I have come across. Most of them have cheap backings but this seems to have a good fabric backing. It may not be Chinese but a quilt from the 60's- 70'S. Many of them have very poor quilting stitches.
