I bought an interesting quilt top at the antique show last weekend. It need a bit of work but not much and I did find similar fabric for a repair. The fabrics are from aprox 1890-1910. I love this one because all the points are cut off but it looks great. Reminds me what is important about quilting :)

So.... how would you quilt this one? I'd like to do it on the long arm but use a pattern from the time this would have been made. It is slightly 'crispy' in places and had odd stains from being stored for so long. I'm afraid to even attemt any kind of washing until I have it secured with quilting.
