This last set of pics is from the last quilt in the Bed Turning. It was just stunning, made in about 1850. Using a compass rose pattern, however, note that the rose is not based on 8 points, but 10!

Green color has probably faded, but the quilting group is fairly certain that the maker created her own pattern because of the 10 points. And the quilting itself is just stunning.
