I am repairing a community signature quilt made in 1941 for a friend. It is a bow tie quilt. Luckily most of it is just re-sewing by hand where it is coming undone and repairing a couple tears. But there is one block where a chunk of fabric is gone.
Please search your stash for this old fabric. It looks like it might be shirting fabric. If we can match it, I only need about a 5" square. It we can only come up with a similar print then I will have to replace the whole bow tie, in which case I would need at least a 10" square (maybe a fat quarter in case I screw up).
I'm hoping some of you might have inherited/acquired an older stash and might have this.
Thanks for looking.
