my mom had a
quilt like that

Rolling Stone 1920s. eBay purchase from Berk’s Country, PA. 70½"x70" Fabric: Cotton. Batting: Thin and flat.
Backing: Five stripes of fabric 11½" wide plus seams in white-orange-green-orange-white pattern inside
pink borders 7½" wide. Edge: The front is brought to the back and sewn by hand. Piecing: By machine.
Quilting: By hand along the edges of the motifs and in a square grid 1¾" per side in borders. Condition:
Very good. The green on the back has light fading along a fold mark. The white has 3 pale pink spots
(strawberry soda?) that I did not try to remove.
