Need help with ID of Grannie’s quilt pattern
Found this beauty in a closet clean-out. Made by my Grandmother in McDonald County, MO, circa 1940. Can anyone tell me the pattern name, please? Thanks.

It appears to be a Scrappy Irish Chain and quite lovely too.

That quilt is a real beauty! Lots of work without rotary cutters and all the latest. Does it have a label with details attached? I would like to try that pattern too?

Found this .....

which looks similar apart from the contrasting white squares. Great way to use scraps.

It's beautiful and appears to be in good condition for its age.
I would suggest making a label and adding some info about your grandma on the back. I plan to do that with my grandmother's quilts.
Enjoy life and do what makes you happy. Everything else will follow.
Every day I try to do one thing that challenges my comfort zone.

Thanks all! The colors are very vibrant and stitches are tight as a drum. Tiny bit of foxing on some of the white squares, but otherwise nice condition. Sorry, but no details or further provenance other than maker and date.
