               my mom had a
               quilt like that








































































               Cherry Baskets 1930s colors. The remains of a cloth label on the back has an India ink "1984" but I don’t be-
               lieve that’s the date of the quilt or its completion. The fabric of the tag doesn’t match the quilt. Purchased
               at a Bellevue, WA antique mall in 1988. 71"x81" Fabric: Cotton. Batting: Cotton, low loft. Backing: White
               muslin. Edge: Back is brought ½" over to the front. Piecing: By hand. Quilting: By hand in straight lines
               1½" apart. Large crooked stitches 3-4 to the inch. Condition: Ends of quilting threads are left on the top.
               Otherwise very good.
                                                                                  Figure 15: Cherry Baskets
