Well isn't this one interesting. Made in the thirties and from the scrap drawer. I believe we call that a stash now. I couldn't stop looking at it because I couldn't figure out how it was pieced. Some inset seams I guess. I think these are easier by hand and they had all the time in the world. No television. The quilter could listen to the radio and quilt at the same time.

Beautiful design...Did you go to Canton this weekend? I was there on Friday and just about died of heatstroke. Lunch next week?
ReplyDeleteLooking at a quilt like that, I sometimes wish we had time to do the handwork.
