I'm not for sure who made this quilt. I know it was made by someone on my Dad's side of the family. This one is also made by someone from a small community outside of Murfreesboro, TN. It is navy and red. One small section is in green. I guess she ran out of blue! It is hand pieced and quilted. It measures 88"x72". I believe it was made in the 1880's. My daughter saw this quilt Christmas day, and now she wants one by this pattern! Any know the name of this pattern?

Beautiful quilt.

It's beautiful. I don't know the pattern.

One I have seen like it was embroidered out from each center--and called "Spider Web". I know I have seen this pattern---will look in my notebook of clippings of old KC Star patterns....anyone have Brackman's book? Or Ginnie Malones?

Very lovely!

No pattern, but as for making it, I would start with the blue triangle that looks like it is in between the blocks. Then add a pieced triangle (four strips of fabric) to each side of it to make a bigger triangle. These can then be sewn together to make the pattern. The pieced triangles could be cut from a strip, cutting one up and one down to save fabric.

Wonderful quilt, the quilting really sets off the pattern. With strip piecing and the rulers we now have this would be a fairly easy quilt to duplicate. Our grandmothers didn't have it so easy so we really appreciate the hard work they put into making their quilts.

Beautiful quilt! I don't know the pattern name, sorry.
