Quilt Pattern of The '30s

Apr 22, 2008 5 Replies

I have a quilt my Grandmother made in the 1930's and cannot find what the pattern is. Can anyone help. I have picture of it.


How can I show a picture of my quilt then maybe someone can identify it? snipped-for-privacy@roadrunner.com

will do the trick. You need a digital image either from a digital camera, or a scanner. Then put the image on your computer, and follow the instructions at the website for posting your photo online. Then come back here and share the link with us and we'll all go have a look! : )

Can't wait to see it!

The webshots way is by far the easiest, but if you don't have a digital camera, you might try describing it.

Is the quilt made of squares with the same design in each square? If so, try to describe the design.

Is the quilt made of squares, rectangles, triangles? Where do they go?

Are there curves in the quilt?

Describe. If the quilt is made from a standard block design, we should be able to find it on the web, direct you there, and ask if we've found a match.

Since webshots isn't behaving for you, you might also try flickr.com, photobucket.com or see if you have webspace through your ISP.

Or you might be able to find what you want by prowling around this site:
