Shawn's Great-Great-Great Grandmother's quilt

Shawn P. at work brought in his great-great-great grandmother's quilt yesterday.  I don't know the name of this pattern but the back is made out of feed sacks.

We were able to make out the words "Windsor Mills"  printed in reverse on the back of the quilt.  The colors are still vibrant after all these years and the stitches are perfect.  

Shawn said this quilt has been handed down from generation to generation and he will give it to his daughter when the time comes.  

Thanks, Shawn for sharing such a treasure.
