A TRUE BEAUTY. I PURCHASED THIS QUILT TOP AND BACKING FABRIC IN 1984. I THINK THE QUILT BLOCKS WERE MADE IN THE 1930's or '40's. I STILL HAVE THE RECEIPT FROM THE ANTIQUE STORE WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. I AM 80 SO PROBABLY WON'T EVER GET IT QUILTED! IT HAS A TAG ATTACHED TO ONE UNDERNEATH CORNER THAT SAYS "THE FEATHERED STAR 2122". I HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT DONE BEFORE. TOP MEASURES APPROX. 82" X 100". THERE ARE 20 QUILT BLOCKS MEASURING APPROX. 14" X 14 1/2". IT IS HAND-STITCHED. THE ONLY MACHINE STITCHING IS ON THE BLUE TRIANGLE PIECES THAT ARE LYING ON TOP OF THE WHITE CONNECTING STRIPS. ALL CONNECTING STRIPS AND MOST EDGE PIECES ARE "NEWER" FABRIC. THE "NEWER" FABRIC IS WHITER THAN THE OLDER FABRIC. THIS CAN BE SEEN EASIER IN THE SHOTS SHOWING THE BACK SIDE UP CLOSE. THE TOP WAS PICTURED LYING ON A KING-SIZE BED. I HAVE PICTURES SHOWING THE AMOUNT HANGING OVER EACH SIDE OF THE BED AS WELL AS HOW WELL IT COVERS THE TOP OF THE BED. THERE IS ONE PIECE OF UNBLEACHED MUSLIN FOR BACKING THAT MEASURES 40" X 18+ YDS. ANOTHER PIECE MEASURES 31" X 86". I HAVE NO IDEA WHY! UNPACKED WEIGHT IS A LITTLE OVER 4 LBS. HAS NEVER BEEN LAUNDERED. ALL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
