It appears from one picture that the stars were hand pieced and possibly at a later time someone else sewed them together by machine. I think you would get a great deal of satisfaction if you were to finish it. But, please don't round file it.

great fabric history
|
I would make some throw pillows out of it, or maybe a beach throw.
|
That is an absolute treasure! If you don't want it, I would happily take it off your hands. Send me a PM.

You could take it apart and frame each block and give to quilter friends as a gift for their quilt space. A little piece of history and inspiration.
I've also seen some lovely primitive christmas ornaments from old star blocks. |
I would be glad to get this quilt from you .
|
Well they tried!
|
Just finish it up and donate it. Someone who has nothing will love it. They won't care about points not matching.
|
Use it as an example of what not to do....LOL!!! Love it....you made me chuckle...see it did do some good!

I was given an old quilt once, I donated it to a private school for their fundraising auction and it brought in $275!! Or you could donate it to a guild who will finish it and donate it to a charity.
If it were mine, I might replace the border with a single fabric. I think it is adorable, and possibly someone's first attempt at the star pattern :) |
