This "quilt" is about fifty years old and has been in use the entire time, although it is starting to seperate. When I got it was flat, but it got fried in a overheated dryer (burned the hand when touched inside drum getting stuff out that was too hot to touch) and now sort of bubbly/puckery. The quilter stitched around each square, which would be a neat handwork thing to take along to all the places we have to wait in a day) and then crocheted them together. Looks like cotton thread of some sort was used. It must have taken a very long time. The full squares were 6" but since the frying they are 5 1/2" squares. There is no backing; just the simple wool squares and this thing is toasty!
