Did I mention that I love antique signature quilts? Well, I really do!! This one is done in a lovely Oak Reel applique pattern with a great swag and bow/ribbon border. It has names in the center circles (see 3rd pic below) but no place names or dates. I really do need to work on finding out where it was made.
The blocks are striking and the border bows are delightful!

I still wonder if I should cut out the fabric from behind my applique.
ReplyDeleteEven though we don't use the old dyes I thinking now that I shall leave it in after seeing the above photo, just in case.
