               quilt like that











































































               Fans with Embroidery Dated 1909. eBay purchase. 66"X77" Fabric: Mixed cotton and wool background
               blocks, cotton fans. Batting: None detected. Backing: Cotton flannel. Edge: The back is brought to the front
               and caught by hand. Piecing: Mixed machine and hand. Quilting: Tied with yellow embroidery floss visible
               on the back. Condition: Condition of the fabrics is very good. Construction is weak: The fans are too big to
               lie flat and are sometimes pinched to fit into their blocks and the blocks next door.
                                                                                  Figure 188: Fans with Embroidery
