I agree. It's not Hawaiian-style quilting, and the applique is much simpler than their traditional patterns.

I agree, that this is definately not the traditional Hawaiian quilting in either the applique nor the quilting.. Hawaiian quilting is usually echo quilting, following the design.

It could be an attempt to produce a quilt based on the design elements of Hawaiian quilts, but done on a smaller scale and perhaps, if it was a fund raiser, each block done by a different person..

But it does not follow the traditions of Hawaiian quilts.

Now, what it might be and how old requires a much closer look, in person.
Cant tell the materials and quality of the work in the pictures.

The value of any quilt is determined by many elements, including, originality, design elements, condition, and execution.

Thanks, and that makes a lot of sense, because my grandmother would most likely have lived in Pennsylvia at that point.
Thanks again!

OK, I found your quilt...

This is a Mountain Mist pattern that was printed on the back of the paper that was wrapped around the batting.

It is called Freindship Plume and it is Mountain Mist pattern #59, I believe it was published in the mid 1930s. I do not have the pattern in my possesion, but have access to one, so I will post the actual published date sometime during the next week..

Wow Judy, you're good.

Looks like the same pattern I saw at my daughter's house this weekend. It was made by my SIL great grand mother. It was all hand made and the applique was raw edge. The quilt looked very old. The SIL is 48 years old so you could figure up approx. how old if made by GGM.
