I made a mistake from my previous reply. I think it was about 12 to 16 inch blocks. Each square block had a (8 side) stop sign shaped in strips. I previously said it was Octagon..But, maybe Hexagon. LOL Anyways, I noticed each side of the Hexagon/octagon??, was about a 2 in strip to fit the length of the side. Therefore, it started with 8 sides. Strips kept forming in this shape. I also noticed that the border of the quilt had bear claws on solid fabric. It's hard to describe and I can't find anything that looks like it.

So can't use that as an excuse for not remembering the quilt. Hope someone on the board that has seen it can remember.

It was I think they called it the feritility quilt. It was given to the couple by gamma when they arrived at his house in Alaska. Sandra kept throwing it off her ! LOL

Ah, now I remember it. Thanks for refreshing my memory. :D

I see quilts in movies all the time now! It's almost freaky how many artistic directors and set designers include them!

Watching the movie now and paused it. It's a pineapple block like this one:

The quilt in the movie appears to be more of a scrapbag quilt.
