Good idea. I hadn't thought of that. I'm not sure I've ever been aware of an appraiser at any of the quilt shows I've attended as I've never gone to a large show such as Houston or Paducah. I have been to the wonderful outdoor show at Sister's in Oregon and I'm sure they would have an appraiser there. Terrific idea. Thank you everyone for your input. I knew the pattern was popular in the 30's but can't tell if that's actually when it was made. Also I had no idea about the Mountain Mist batting wrappers.

I agree with PaperPrincess, late 20's -30's.

And I agree as well.
A quilt my Grandmother made had the same colors in a pattern called English Flower Pot.

Send your jpeg to the Nebraska Quilt Museum something-or-other. They helped identify the pattern for me and I knew the year.

I'm guessing from the 30's to the 50's maybe.

Me 3. Maybe mid-20s, even. But around then.
