<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 8923493, member: 36"]It looks like a center applique medallion with a really old patchwork pattern around the outside. The problem is those patterns are still in use, and quilts are still being hand-stitched. So whether it's old or made to look old, or just made the way the quilter wanted to make it...dunno. Someone who knows traditional patterns may come along and pin (*rimshot*) a name on it for you. I'm a jigsaw quilter and work in the reverse of traditional quilting - I start with random pieces and work backward.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
