Today I finished a top I bought on ebay for $10. The fabrics are not all cotton, some poly blends. The seam intersections were rough to quilt, and some parts didn't want to lay flat. The piecer wasn't real skilled but she put a lot of work into it. I like the pattern and I'm pleased with the finished quilt, I never piece the harder patterns like this. Anyboy know when the top might have been made? The fabrics look 1960s or 70s to me.

What a pretty quilt...the colours and patterns do look like the '70's. I love to see what people do with someone else's unfinished projects...now it will be used, which after all was the initial intention.
