Quilt Identifying Pattern
 

Hey guys! I am very new to quilting. I recently found a Quilt that my great grandmother made and I would like to know more about it if any one has any advice about how to find out more. To me it looks like a sort of "Pine Burr" but instead if circles it is in straight lines. I gave a picture if i can figure out how to upload it.

Without a picture it is hard to tell, but from your description, it sounds like something of a pineapple log cabin design, perhaps.

looks like hexagons but instead of sewing the edges together you overlap and stitch the bottom of one to the middle of another. When making the hexis it looks like you only need to finish the top half since the bottom half would be covered by the next layer/row.

Wow! That's some quilt. I'm sorry to not really be able to add much information, I don't remember seeing anything quite like it before. However, hard to tell by the scale of the prints but I'm thinking there was a lot of dimensional projects in the 1970s and that was probably made sometime around then with scraps from earlier. What a way to use up small bits!

It looks very much like the process of making a Pinecone Quilt, just using a different shape template.

They actually look like miniature or tiny Dresden plates

that is very interesting I hope someone can find the pattern love to doit.
thanks for showing it.

Perhaps something like this - Pine cone quilt pattern made with tiny dresdens
or Pine cone quilts

Or perhaps a Pine Burr Quilt - an example - Pine Burr Quilt
It's also the State of AL The Official quilt is the Pine Burr Quilt State of AL - This Article also shows how to make the Pine Burr.

There are also YouTube tutorials on making the Pine Burr Quilt

One pic is much like this Drummer Boy quilt, but the other looks as if the point of the dresdens has been folded down too.

Thanks!
 

Thank you guys for taking the time to help me! I definitely agree with the Pine cone pine burr pattern. I tried to google image search it but nothing really came up. If anyone has nay advice on how to wash it also. It was in a smokers house for 30 or so years. I would love to have it on display in our house.

It can be hard to find, but the best smoke remover I've found is Febreeze Unscented Fabric Spray and advantage is you don't have to wash, but you might want to fluff a bit in the dryer. Sometimes it is easier to find at office supplies or hardware stores than the other likely sorts of places. I just ordered some from Amazon, one of the ladies in my Tuesday sewing group shared some fabric from her sister, completion unused and well stored fat quarters and such, but a pretty heavy smoke smell.

Keanse19, you have a true treasure there! I'm so glad you love it and want to show it!

To me it looks as if she used Prairie Points and then folded the sides toward the middle to make the size she wanted. Must admit that I've never seen one like this before. Quite unique.

I agree! It must weigh a TON. What a treasure of little bits of fabric from your Grandma. Here is a link for this some info about the pine cone quilt technique.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oBj8GQcc6M I agree it is just a different shaped pieces of fabric put in rows rather than in a circle. Keep hunting. You can find so much info by a simple google search.

Just spotted this pattern, and thought of the query in this thread.
While it may not be the exact same pattern ...
... it looks like it may give some insights as to the the "how to" of the original.
