               Grandmother’s Engagement Ring, Baby Bunting 1930s judging from shades of pink. Purchased at
               Puyallup,WA antique show prior to 2003. 66¾"x 79½" Fabric: Cotton. Batting: Medium weight cotton.
               Backing: Pink cotton the same color as the field. Edge: Back is brought ½" to the front and top-stitched by
               machine. Piecing: By hand. Quilting: By hand, 6 stitches to the inch. The border is unquilted. Within the
               motifs, in arcs 1" apart, plus inside the seam lines of blocks. Condition: Very good. One faint ½" age stain
               appears within one block. Lacking a rating of excellent only because of that and because the quilt has been
               washed at least once, but it’s bright and strong.
