               quilt like that










































































               Seven Sisters 1930s. Antique show or mall purchase prior to 2003. 67½"x84½" Fabric: Cotton. Batting: Thin.
               Backing: White muslin. Edge: A hand-made tape of floral print ¼" on each side has been machined to the
               front and hand stitched to the rear. Piecing: Stars by hand; larger pieces by machine. Quilting: By hand, 9-
               10 stitches to the inch, in a 1" gridwork. Condition: Very good. The cottons look like they have been washed
               at least once. There is a yellow stain from something spilled on the back at one time. It is water soluble
               and would wash out.

                                                                                  Figure 135: Seven Sisters
