I have a few antique quilts that are like the umbrella girl posted earlier and also the Sun Bonnet Sue. Although I have sold the Umbrella girl quilt to Australia, I loved it and was sorry to part with it.

These were both hand stitched and quilted in 1935 by Mrs. Ruth Dixon of Tennessee. I purchased them about 10 years ago from her daughter. I am currently making a SBS out of retro fabric. Good luck with yours.
