Wow! That is quite a find! No idea of the date either. It is very bright colors and reminds me of the fabric when I started quilting in the 70's. It would start to yellow if it was stored in plastic. I am afars I would open a small area and see the batting. If it's fluffy poly then definitely not before the 70's. It appears to me someone made this for someone that either didn't care for pieced quilts or was always saving it for a special occurrence. Or as my grandmother would say, 'Saving it for good." So it would be nice when it is needed. But the sad part is, there was never a special enough person/reason to use it.
Two years ago my DH and I made a 5 week trip traveling around west of the Mississippi visiting family and friends. I made kitchen towels for everyone (because it was something everyone needs sometime and I had no idea what their homes were like.) Everyone said they were too pretty to use. But I stressed they did need to be used. I can always make more.
