Yellow and White Stamped Quilt

Here is a lovely quilt - one side white and the other a soft yellow. It has a design which seems to have been a fairly common one, with a central design surrounded by two offset squares which firm an outer star. 



The centre has a daisey surrounded by proud ferns.


Large corner motifs seem to be pointed ferns.


There is a nice scroll and feather outer border, which is not turned but has a cross hatched corner.

Another look at a corner.


The reverse is a gentle yellow in cotton sateen.


The edge has the usual double line of machine stitching.


A few blue marks. This pencil must have been very sturdy as it often remains for a long time and quite a few washes.
