my mom had a
quilt like that
Oak Leaf and Reel in Red and Green 1900-1930, guess. Green is typical of old dyes. eBay purchase 2016.
71"x87" Fabric: Cotton. Batting: Medium weight cotton. Backing: Cotton. Edge: Red tape. Piecing: By hand.
Quilting: By hand in diamonds 1" on edge, red in red areas and white elsewhere. Condition: Red binding
wore through on the edge. Some half-moons have faded. Otherwise, fabric is firm. Comment: Chosen for
strong graphics and decent condition for the price. I recovered the edge.
