Lovely quilt, love the bright yellow. Hard to imagine a dress of bright yellow in that time period. What a treasure!
WOW, definitely a cool quilt to have. Which shop did you take it to? So you've got the melons ready to applique on a quilt sandwich? Never heard of that before.
What a treasure! Thanks for sharing the details. Lucky you to own this beauty. Will you decorate with it?
Lovely old quilt! I like the table runner for Christmas too.
The vintage quilt is priceless! Glad the historian was in the shop and gave you some idea of its age. Do you know any of its history or who made it?
What a great quilt! A treasure, for sure! I like the table runner, too. Sometimes smaller, and done is the way to go.
I find the antique quilt very interesting. I like the yellow setting fabric that was used. Definitely a treasure. I probably would store it in a white cotton pillow case and get it out every so often to refold or re-roll it.
Very wonderful quilt! It seems unusual to find one that yellow. I love it.
I adore the red and white peel too! Always a winner.
That is a beautiful treasure. What a shame it is that parts of it are shredded.
The red peels are so pretty too.
Thank you for showing the museum piece quilt! Also, thank you for the inspiration on the orange peels idea. I just recently acquired the 5" orange peel template from Missouri Star but I haven't used it yet.
My thoughts are that you are a very lucky girl indeed! That quilt is a treasure, thanks for sharing it. Your table runner is going to be stunning. :)
A great gift to recieve. Such a beauty. Your table runner is in the best colors...red and white.

What a treasure. The yellow looks like the California gold type of print. Check out Barbara Brackman's website. It might give you a few clues.
What a lovely old quilt! I've only seen handquilting that fine once and it is a marvel to behold. Prior to that I always thought they must be exaggerating at the # per inch. Have fun with your peels :0)
What a beautiful treasure you are the lucky recipient of!! Tiny, tiny quilting stitches! And without all the modern conveniences of today - amazing! Love the R&W runner too!!
una maravillosa joya!!!
felicidades por tenerlo
saludos
Hi juliewhat a fantastic find when we wherein the states weren't. To the DAR museum and I saw how they repaired shredded pieces on quilts they used a very fine net the colour of the piece and carefully stitched over the shredded pieces at a distance you would not know and it kept the fabric pieces together hugs lyn ps a parcel on the way for you

Hi Julie
Love your table Runner, but the old quilt is amazing. What a treasure! I agree pretty dam good for the fact they did not have the tools and gadgets we have now.
Gorgeous antique quilt... is it hand pieced? The workwomanship is wonderful!
Amazing old quilt Julie. The chrome yellow is awesome. The stories it could tell-right? You can maybe fold the shredded parts in and display it. Do we ever have enough room to display all the stuff we love?
