Below are pics of another vintage quilt top that I recently made into a quilt. The top was made (all hand-pieced) by Mary Susan (Weathers) Senter, and she was born in 1843 and died in 1937 at age 93. She married Robert Winthrop Senter in 1861 when she was 18. So the top predates at least 1937.
This is one of about a dozen tops that belonged to a couple that I'm good friends with (he's the grandson of Mary Susan Senter). It measures 68" x 80". I quilted this on my longarm just doing a meandering quilting. |
You do such great work! What a wonderful piece!

I am also doing some old family quilt tops for a lady that is giving them to family members. Some of the piecing is a challenge to say the least when put on my LA but the end product is always nice. She and the family have been very happy and amazed with the results. Since she has difficulty doing any hand sewing, I also do her binding so the quilt is completely finished when she gets it. I'm really enjoying the process. I've enjoyed looking at each one you have posted and must say they are wonderful.
