The embroidered blocks were started but never finished by my husband when he was a young child in the late 1940s. My mother-in-law gave them to me about 10 years ago, and I finished the embroidery, trying to match his childhood stitches. It took me 2 years to find the right old and reproduction fabrics to make the quilt. I gave it to my husband for his birthday in 2000.
