Twinkie:
I expect it is a very old pattern - just as your antique quilt shows! Eleanor Burns has a knack for taking those old traditional patterns and writing instructions/videos/shows so that modern quilters can easily make them. I loved seeing your antique - it shows this pattern will be timeless. And the creativity that your quilt shows in the border tells us that quilters are always wanting to test their skills and make beautiful works of art. Thanks for sharing your quilt with us.
