I have a book called Mountain Mist Quilt Favorites that contains that quilt pattern. The book shows a quilt made in 1983 but includes this information--this pattern first appeared on Mountain Mist wrappers in l930. It is called windblown tulips and I would guess yours was made around that time-1930's. On a label you might put that the quilter is unknown, what you do know and when and where the pattern came from. BTW-all your quilts are beautiful.

Love each of your quilts - have to admit a fondness for log cabins and yours is awesome. Please let us know what you learn abut the tulip quilt - hope the mystery gets solved for you!

Love your quilts....I'd say the tulip quilt is early to mid 1930's...I'm no expert, but I love vintage and antiques. Thanks for posting.
