All these photos were taken at the Montgomery Street Antique Mall in Fort Worth, Texas about 2 or 3 months ago. The first quilt was quite unusual. I believe it is from the 1920s or 30s because it features embroidered and colored faces of numerous cartoon characters of that era.
It was a huge quilt and there was very little space to spread it out in order to photograph it so this is the best I could do.

Can't recall the name of this block. Nice red, white and cream combination. Wonder if the cream fabric used to be green but lost it's color due to the dying process. |

This one was a cool quilt made from tobacco premium felts. If you wish to learn more about tobacco felts, click HERE.
All in all, it was a great day for quilts at the antique mall.
Until the next time, may your bobbin always be full.
Great show of quilts, Donna. The first one is truely unusual.
