    Beautiful! Look at all the work that went into that--and someone thought a $ was what it was worth. Glad you rescued it.

    Fabric looks more like 30's or 40's to me. I agree with Tartan..could be feed sack material. It is really a beauty. Great find for you. So happy you stopped at the sale.

    It was partially hand pieced but mostly machine pieced.

    I'm glad it landed in YOUR hands & not the landfill! I'd be so hurt if someone sold a quilt I had made.

    Just beautiful. You are so lucky. The fabrics look like some feed sack fabrics my DM used in the early 40's.
