Hi Shannon. The quilt is very lovely and has obviously been taken very good care of. Not sure what information you are looking for about it. If you're wondering if it was done a little earlier that 1969, it would be hard to tell. Some of the solid fabrics look to be a little older, like the 40s, but women have always saved scraps for quilting. I still use some feedsack fabrics that I have acquired. The pattern is very old, I do know. The important thing is that it is an heirlook for you and your family. Wish I had one, but no one in my family quilted that I know of, so the heirloom stuff starts with me. LOL.
