My gra...I know for a fact that it came from a kit. My grandmother made one like that (though a different type of flower and design) for me and for my sister when we got married. You bought the kit and it came with the white top with a pre-printed design and also had all the fabric with the pieces pre-printed on it and numbered. Hers had a diagram that told where all the numbered pieces went. The person would cut out the shapes, applique them on by hand and then quilt it all together and bind it. <br /><br />Hand applique is very time-consuming and requires LOTS of patience! It took her months to finish them both! It's a shame that the people who had it didn't value it more, but you're the happy recipient of their foolishness! <br /><br />It wouldn't be hard to find compatible colors in quilt fabric, but then you (your mom or whoever finished it) would have to figure out the design like a jigsaw puzzle. I actually think it sounds like fun!<br /><br />Great find!Anne@Kitschy Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08712937651022641233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7849034343139627779.post-9130330788529037582012-02-16T12:43:47.237-06:002012-02-16T12:43:47.237-06:00I've never seen a quilt quite like the one you...I've never seen a quilt quite like the one you bought.
