This is a family piece. It is 76"x 105" and I am unsure how old it is. My cousin inherited it and she said it was old when she got it about 25 years ago. It is made of 30 blocks. I like this style of quilt. My grandmother use to make them but she didn't embroider on them. She would just call them "Family Quilts" because they were made from clothing of the family when they wore out and the material was salvaged. I can tell you this quilt is very heavy. It has wool and other heavy fabric pieces.
