Beautiful quilt top you rescued!
I'm trying to remember the quilting on the one I slept under for years. I know the white areas were echo quilted 1/4" from the seam with an X in the "football" and cross-hatching on the larger white area. The squares were also done with an X. What I don't remember is the quilting on the arcs. It may have been stitched in the ditch creating a vertical pattern on the back or else parallel lines following the curve of the arc in a more horizontal or circular design. Very simply done, no fancy designs.

Great find!

Lucky, lucky you! Beautiful piece! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

It's wonderful that you rescued it! It's very beautiful!
Enjoy!

What a treasure....good for you!!!

I totally agree! BTW I was given an all by hand feedsack top and had a chance to ask an official quilt price expert about it. She said that either hand or machine quilting would have the same value, if well done. I handed it over to a local LA pro who quilted it for a local fundraiser.

that is great

OOOOOOOO Very nice!!!

Great find

What a wonderful find. I think hand quilting is the way to go.
