Mine was made by my Grandmother and probably her mother in the 30's. It is one of the few quilts they made that are not scrap quilts. Hand quilted and pieced. They turned the blocks differently than some of the pictures I've seen. I do not have a picture of the full quilt. My youngest daughter now has the quilt. The pattern is Missouri Puzzle and was probably in the Kansas City Star or Caper's Weekly since that is where they got most of their patterns. Notice the intricate quilting (by hand). I'm not sure I would have the patience to do that.
