If anyone can date the fabric by looking, I would appreciate it. It was a church yard sale so no one knew who donated it. Wish I knew its history.
Otherwise, it is impossible to tell from the photo because the details are too small.

Hi! I have a partial quilt top (due to a fire) that was my mothers years ago. I hope to redo some of it and finish it one of these days. Mine is put together by each circle of flowers, hard to explain, feel sure it is at least 75 years old too.
