[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 865884, member: 51"]This was a $5 purchase at an estate sale. I'm not really into quilt type things, but this seemed so special. I realize it is either for a table runner etc., or possibly was unfinished. Outer edges are unfinished. First thought was that I was going to turn around and sell on Ebay, but brought it to another neighbor who has and entire room dedicated for sewing with a specialty being quilts, and she went crazy for this. I guess normal wedding ring style has sort of a square pieces of fabric to make the rings, but here there are over 100 triangular pieces, all different fabric which looks to be 30s or 40s.
