8 pointed Star - Quaker- Chester County Pennsylvania - dated 1850 - made for Enoch and Mary Worrall.
The quilt is chock full of history and several blocks detail Worrall and Hoopes family genealogy (see center block above with multiple names).
Amy Davis's block sporting that ever popular "Forget me not" message.
The full quilt in all its glory. The 2 Oak Reel blocks in the bottom corners were leftovers from a quilt top made for Enoch and Mary Worrall's daughter Mary.
Monday Funday!

Here are my trees so far. This is likely the setting I will use. I'm
thinking one more row of 3. These are big blocks, so no need for a giant
quilt. More...

I really like the addition of the oak leaf and reel blocks in the 2 corners. It helps make the whole thing more interesting.
