The visitor's center on the south end of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has this beautiful quilt hanging behind the desk. I had to stop a second time just to get pictures to post for you! All the blocks are Ohio Stars, but the fabric selection makes them look very different!
I like old quilts because the quilters had different dilemas than I do and tackled them very creatively. Quilts are so fun to see because each quilter interprets the same ideas in unique ways, no two hand-made quilts will ever be exactly identical.
Did you happen to notice the block at the bottom that got put together wrong? I was tracing all the stars with my eyes and got stuck on that one, so I had to figure out why. I love the quilt, and your post.
