It took me quite awhile to find the name of this quilt. Grandmother's choice. At first I thought it was a variation of the Tennessee Waltz but it wasn't. This quilt was another from the Iron Range. It is in perfect condition other than slightly faded. It is all cotton and not quilted but tied. The maker did a beautiful job matching corners and the blocks are nice and even. It is heavy so possibly has a blanket inside. It is a full bed size. The backing is a solid olive green cotton. The only thing I didn't like about this quilt is that it was finnished with a dark brown zig zag stitch but it isn't straight and in places the backing comes over the front. Other than that, I really like this quilt. Would it be wrong to take the zig zag stitching out and add a binding?
