I saw this quilt at an antique exhibit. It was in terrible shape, but I loved the composition. The booth owner let me sit and take notes - I didn't have my camera with me. To answer a question from comments, my camera is an old Gateway digital (DC-T50 5.25 megapixels). My reproduction of the quilt came totally from stash - I love when that happens! The quilt went together fairly quickly due to the deep sashing/cornerstones.

A very interesting quilt. You made yourself some good notes. The like the use of the green sashing. The pattern looks very dimensional.
OMG! I love it!! Yours looks old;) I love the green sashing and is that a wine colored red in the blocks?

Yes - I copied the colors from the original quilt.

Yes! this is really beautiful...I'm super inspired...but I have so many quilts in the works right now. Love the colors!
Great quilt--I love the odd size of the sashing, kind of takes over the quilt, making you peer deeper into the quilt to see the little parts.
