This quilt top has been in my Grandmother’s cedar chest forever! Then it was in my Mom’s stash - forever. I have toyed with the idea of making this pattern but never got around to it. Then Mom showed it to me. I was astounded to see not only was the quilt totally marked for the quilting lines, but the intended binding was all there! I’m guessing that my quilting abilities had progressed enough that Mom was comfortable with allowing me to take it. With a little planning I was able to adapt the intended hand quilting to a continuous machine stitch. Put the binding on and give it back to my Mom to whip the binding down. My Mom was very pleased with the results and has decided to leave it as is with all the pencil markings. She believes it was made by her Grandmother or an Great Aunt.
