I don't think the Grand is a FWS. Do you think DJ? or perhaps Civil War?

It was all machine quilted ... I couldn't get a good enough look to determine if it was QAYG or after the fact. The sashing was all black and the border a greenish/tan sort of colour. The realistic colour shows best in one of the other pics, where it shows in a corner.

I'm hoping to get a better/closer look at it when I pick my things up on Sunday.

And yes .... it's given me huge inspiration to get going on my FWS soon ... when I get my life back again! :)
VERY nice sampler, but not DJ or FW. I have no knowledge of civil war sampler(s?) though. Are those blocks 6" ones?
