I think these are from the 1930's. I have bought some from eBay and today they had a vintage quilt that had a note attached and it was made in 1933. Love them too, have these small quilts with butterflies all over the house.

if the fabric is smooth it is not feedsacks. If a bit course then it is feedsacks.

oooh...little green with envy... :-D I love fabric from the 30's - 50's, and the reproductions! I think those blocks will make a great quilt, can't wait to see it when you have it all done!!

Well it's the 30's fabric and if it's done by hand..if it's done on a machine.. with a blanket stitch.. it could be great looking reproductions!! Going to make a wonderful quilt..either way !!
