I can't find any similar on line. I'm new at this investigative portion of quilting... but having a blast learning all about the various eras!

I'd guess 1920-1930 based on the smoothness, color and pattern size. But I'm not very confident. The quilting and applique is with black embroidery thread.

I bought it thinking I'd give it to my mother in law but found a large block in poor condition. Her birthday is Weds so there's no chance to fix it before then. So I'll get her something else and save this for another occasion.

It's a Colonial Basket quilt block pattern. It's machine pieced but hand quilted and hand appliqued. Love the puckering!

What era is the orange/green geometric fabric from?
