(I've noticed that there are not many modern quilts made with set-in corners anymore. It is easier to make hst or whatnot than to do this kind of tricky sewing. Makes this a true treasure!)

Yes ma'am the whole thing was hand sewn... my moms bed is a queen so I think that this is a full size quilt but I am sure it could be made to fit a queen bed... I love it. I have some of my grandmothers and great grandmothers quilt block samples here too that I am going to take pics of and show to everyone. Thanks for the comments.

I think the block is a Carpenter`s Wheel. It certainly fits the modern look. I think it's beautiful. Enjoy.

Very nice and it is in really good shape!

that's a wonderful treasure!

Wow! What bright colors and such a pretty pattern! I've never seen that pattern before!

Beautiful and especially beautiful as U Great Grandmother made: WOW: Wonderful for U.
