Don’t know what it is but it’s a real beauty. Took a lot of talent to put that one together.

The mustard color was see a lot at one time. I just can't remember when. Maybe the 40's.

Welcome to the board and Happy Birthday!
That's a really old quilt- much older than the 1940's.
It's gorgeous!

Beautiful find and definitely advanced design for the period. Can't imagine hand piecing this. Happy Birthday and welcome to the board.

It's like dessert for the eyes. Love it, and wonder if it's possible to figure out how it's made.
