Default Old treasure now a quilt.

Here is another one of the quilt tops a gal found in her mother's things, now finished so she can surround herself with a bit of her mother's love this Christmas. I added the border and hand quilted it for her. The close-up of the lavender pieces show some holes that I found in numerous pieces throughout the quilt. Does that indicate it is feed-sack fabric? What years would you estimate the fabric is from? Anyone know the name of this pattern? It is similar to a Boston Commons, but the pieces are diamond shaped.
