This is an excellent example of a utility quilt created for use and from the material available at the time. The history is in the feed sack of the depression and WWII. The true feed sack used is evident in the course looser weave. The quilt is far from flawless though. It was well used with frayed edges, the back is thinning and needs to be replaced. The batting has balled creating a lumpy yet comfortable feel. This is definitely a character quilt in need of repair. However, the blocks are in excellent condition excluding one which appears to have an ink spot. There are light signs of aging. It\'s machine pieced and hand quilted. Excellent for a repair to preserve the history or as a cutter quilt. The individual feed sack blocks are in good shape for individual projects.
