Would you mind posting a close up of this quilting?

Also, can you tell if the stars are pieced into the block or appliqued onto the top?
I'll have time to take and post a closeup tomorrow morning. I am not a quilter but the stars look pieced to me.

Also, if anyone is interested in seeing two little coats my ggrandmother, who later wrote of the quilt, wore a few years earlier in the 1850's I'll post that too. I know it's not quilting but it is beautiful sewing.
