Straight from a several generation farm!

The lady who designed and made this variation of a crazy quilt was not only thrifty...she was a genius! This quilt consists of
(25) large blocks all with perfectly applique and stitched down pieces of handwork..doilies, fancywork from runners, towels, etc. Each block was
then joined with PINK crazy quilt stitching and heavily batted. It is in 'As Found' condition. The only flaw noted is an existing yellow spot on
one of the applique pieces....I am currently laundering this out and will report back with the results!
Unused ~ Approx. Circa 1940
Embroidery stitches are of some of the best!
Measurements to come shortly.
