This is one of two quilts I have from my maternal great-grandmother. It is set on the diagonal instead of straight block sets. To me, this gives added interest and movement just because most quilts are set with straight blocks. Diagonal ones take a little more time to work out.
The top photo, right side shows the top binding edge has been turned over and attached with a very straight, steady running stitch. The “making do” comes in because of the batting which it turns out is a blanket.
