IS A WONDERFUL GROUP OF 23 VINTAGE QUILT BLOCKS. THEY ARE ALL STITCHED TOTALLY BY HAND. THEY ARE MADE WITH WHITE & NAVY BLUE COTTON FABRIC. THEY EACH MEASURE AROUND 8 1/2" ACROSS. AS FAR AS I KNOW, THEY NEVER WERE MADE INTO A QUILT. SOMEONE JUST LOVINGLY PIECED THEM TOGETHER WITH THE IDEA OF MAKING THEM INTO A QUILT SOMEDAY. I'M JUST GUESSING BUT I THINK THEY COULD BE FROM THE 1930'S. PERHAPS A BIT OLDER, PERHAPS A BIT NEWER. NOW WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT CONDITION. THE STITCHING IS PRETTY SECURE ON ALL OF THEM, CONSIDERING THEY WERE PIECED WITH HAND STITCHING. I FOUND ONE LITTLE HOLE IN ONE OF THEM AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN MY CLOSE-UP PHOTO. THE WHITE PIECES ALL VARY IN SHADES OF WHITE. SOME ARE A LIGHT YELLOWY BROWN DUE TO AGE. ONE HAS A BROWN STAIN ON IT. YOU CAN SEE IT IN MY CLOSE-UP PHOTO WITH THE BLOCK THAT HAS THE HOLE. T IS ONLY ONE BLOCK THAT IS A DIFFERENT SHADE OF NAVY (THIS IS THE SAME BLOCK WITH THE BROWN STAIN). IT IS A BIT LIGHTER BLUE THAN THE OTHERS. YOU COULD ADD IT TO THE CENTER OF THE QUILT FOR DRAMA OR YOU COULD LEAVE IT OUT. I'M INCLUDING IT BECAUSE IT CAME WITH THE OTHERS. YOU CAN SEE THE SLIGHT DIFFERENCE OF THE BLUES IN MY CLOSE-UP PHOTO OF THE BLOCKS WITH THE HOLE AND THE STAIN. I HAVEN'T TRIED TO WASH THESE BLOCKS. I'M NOT SURE HOW TO DEAL WITH THE LIGHT WHITE AND THE DARK BLUE. THEY COULD USE A LAUNDERING BUT THEY THEY DON'T HAVE ANY ODORS OR OTHERWISE OBVIOUS SURFACE DIRT. THEY JUST HAVE THAT YELLOW-ED AGED VINTAGE LOOK TO THEM. THESE ROUND SUNFLOWER OR STARBURST BLOCKS WOULD MAKE INTO A PRETTY QUILT. THEY ALSO WOULD MAKE CUTE PILLOW TOPS OR OTHER CRAFTY TREASURES. THEY WOULD EVEN BE FUN TO FRAME AND DISPLAY! I ACCEPT PAYPAL AND MONEY ORDERS. NO CHECKS PLEASE. SHIPPING IS $3.00. INSURANCE OPTIONAL. THANKS FOR LOOKING!
