Hand-Made Quilt 86”X 65.5” 75+ years old Very Good Condition I am listing several quilts and quilt tops for my 80 year old neighbor. She found these stored in her barn and stated to me that they were 125 to 175 years old and made by her grandmother. I am no expert, but I don't think that they arethat old; I do think that they date from the 1920's and 1930's. Surprisingly, my neighbor has no family interested in these treasures; they are so great that if I could, I would buy them all for myself. Beautiful finished quilt with Sunbonnet Sue pattern. No two Sue's are the same, no duplicates. Each Sue is hand-sewn onto a cream background. Sunbonnet Sue squares alternate with salmon pink squares that have no patchwork, however each salmon pink square has the shape of a nine-pointed star hand-quilted into it. there is a total of 24 Sunbonnet Sue squares and 24 salmon squares that alternate and they have a poinsettia/star pattern. The backing is solid salmon. There are little stars in the corners where the squares meet and larger stars in the center of the salmon squares (10.5” inch square) and the star is within a square. Amazing all hand quilted. Self-binding. 86”X 65.5” All of these quilts are in excellent condition; the colors are bright. I was unable to find any damage or staining on this quilt. It has a musty smell from being in
