Okay since my FIL is going to a nursing facility we have been slowly cleaning out his home and my daughter brought home several quilts that my MIL made before she passed. I will be posting them as I wash them and get them presentable for photos.
This one I will duplicate but I am trying to figure out how the blocks will work with me doing them on my treadle. She was a hand quilter and never owned a sewing machine. I never was able to meet her before she passed but I got to know her through me replicating one of her quilts not long ago.
Looks like Mrs Mary and I are going to visit again for a while. :-D :-D :-D
My question is this......what pattern is this and when do you think it was made? I am guessing the early 70's before she passed but I might be wrong.
