Here is a set of 20 quilt blocks in the Sheepfold pattern,#2020 in the Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns by Barbara Brackman. It is categorized as an Unequal Nine Patch with large center square and unpieced corners. It was so named by the Kansas City Star newspaper from 1931. It is also a Ladies' Art Company, design #83.
Blocks are hand pieced and each measures approximately 7 1/2" square. The fabrics are vintage cottons, including feedsack, generally from the 1940s era. These are clean and ready to set.
All of the blocks are pictured in the collage photo.
When working with vintage fabric, blocks, tops or quilts, prior quilting and piecing experience is helpful. Pieces were not rotary cut and cutting templates and patterns may not have been square. Pieced items may not be flat. Vintage items may have a musty or storage odor.
