What a fun find. It looks to be a true scrap quilt in that it's a combination of repurposed cloths, linens and new yardage. The fabrics patterns remind me of stuff from the 50,s all the way to the 70's. I know I had a set of sheets as a kid (70's) just like the yellow blue pink bright floral. I would think the original plan was for it to be hand quilted, and that would be a very cool way to finish the original design Me I hate to do hand quilting so I would do simple diagonal lines where the hsts connect then bind it in something muted so it flows to its end not come to a sudden stop with a frame.
