date to the late 1800s. It is a scrap quilt from an age of sewing at home and having wool and cotton scraps.

thin. Backing: Cotton floral on orange and brown stripe. Edge: Separate piece, straight grain hand stitched
to front and back. Piecing: By hand. Quilting: By hand. In radiating lines within cobwebs; square grid

brown ring in a cobweb is frayed. Very minimal moth bites. Comment: Very strong for its graphics.
