This DAZZLING cotton broken star quilt is all hand pieced and hand quilted, with the date "February 9, 1952" hand embroidered in one corner. It's not clear whether this is the date of completion, or commemoration date (date it was given as a gift e.g.). It was made by a woman in named Ruth Williams.It measures 70" X 80" and is in excellent, sturdy condition, with a couple of small, faint spots and no wear.
There is hand quilting around the piecework and in grid, straight line, and overlapping circle designs in the background, all at 7 stitches to the inch.
The back and machine stitched binding are white, and the batting is thin.
The MAGNIFICENT DESIGN and WONDERFUL CHOICE of COLORS and FABRICS make this vintage COLLECTOR'S QUILT stand out -- it would make a terrific wall hanging!
