I NEED HELP TO IDENTIFY HOW OLD THIS QUILT TOP IS PLEASE Appraisal on Page 3
#4
pretty, no idea of age, but it looks in brand new shape, not worn or faded. That would make me doubt the age. Repo fabrics can be used to fool people into thinking thry are getting something old when it isn't. I hope yours IS old!

I just looked at back again and the actual blocks are hand stitched but the sashing s are not. This is not reproduction fabric of that I am sure...I just can't seem to find anything to date it to in my books.
