The rest of the quilt is machine pieced and hand quilted. Lovely, scrappy, 4.5 inch harlequin style border. Many of the center stars are specialty cut or fussy cut. In good condition. The quilt appears to have been washed at some point, but still appears to have small scattered spots, one fabric appears to have some deterioration, and a madder print having some conservation.
