Thanks. I too am very careful with all of my aunt's quilts because of their age, and their hand-stitching.

Thanks for identifying the block! After I'm all finished I'm going to have it appraised. I know my quilting is not as fine as my aunt's, but I still want the information on the age of the quilt, etc.

I've been having all of her quilts appraised a few at a time to get age, etc. My aunt never left any information on her quilts, so the only ones I know about are the ones she gave me. The many others I have no idea!!! And since she was a total scrap quilter, it sometimes confuses the appraiser!

Let this be a warning to us all! Sew a label on your quilt and leave the date and pertinent information!! :shock: :shock:
