1970s vintage quilt blocks with hand stitched candlewick style embroidered on linen weave cotton fabric, white and ivory, with ecru colored lace outlining the blocks.

The blocks measure about 12" x 12" across the the outside edge of the lace border. Most of the blocks have a plain fabric spacer strip on one edge. There's twenty blocks in all with various traditional designs.

There's some pencil marks showing under the embroidery, also a little brown foxing to the fabric. These would probably clean up with washing, but I think you'll probably want to finish the quilt top into one piece before that.
