Beautiful quilt. Love the colors. This was my mil favorite pattern. She gave me one she made in 1933 and I really like it.

Beautiful...it has a similar design to one I am making (same greens, but mainly blues and reds for the flowers).

Nice you are finishing it and it can be loved for many more years. Nice tribute to the person who started it.

What an amazing find, so glad it was you who rescued it. It must have been waiting for you to come along and finish it!
I would love to see it when you have finished quilting it.
Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful old quilt with us all.
