    Three quilts from 1890s probably from RI came in today and I thought you might enjoy seeing them! Goose on a Pond, Herringbone and Log Cabin (barn raising with split center).

    The fabric are very interesting -- I can see that the reproductions now available to us are very close to the originals. Thank you for posting photos

    I've never seen that herring bone patter. Looks like a good one for scraps
