When she found it in a thrift shop, it was filthy and was being used to wrap motor parts in!! Hand pieced quilt blocks!! I feel like someone ought to have been arrested! My question is, do you keep records of what size quilt blocks were originally intended to be, and have you considered adding that information to your reference books? As an EQ8 user (and happy owner of Blockbase) I know I can make quilt blocks any size I want them, but when the goal is to create an authentic reproduction it would really help to know what size the pattern designer originally intended. Scale can make such a huge impact on how modern or antique a quilt appears, regardless of whether appropriate vintage or reproduction fabrics have been used.

It is a variation of Country Farm. I am in St Joseph, MO, just north of Kansas City, so it wouldn’t surprise me to learn it was published in the KC Star. Is there a way I can show you a photo and see if you recognize it?
