Quilt Blocks Star Set Of 20 Eight Point Cotton Scrappy 1940s Geometrics Diamonds

Description

Here is a set of 24 quilt blocks in the Eight Pointed Star pattern, #3735a, as shown in the Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns compiled by Barbara Brackman.  It is classified as an Eight Pointed / 45 Degree Diamond Star.   Pattern is a Ladies Art Company design, number 261.
Blocks are machine pieced and measure approximately 8 1/2" across from point to point.    The blocks are composed of vintage cotton print diamonds, including some feedsacks and floral and geometric prints from the 1940 era.   These are very scrappy.
These will need set in triangles and squares to make useable blocks or they could be appliqued onto a background fabric.    Please note there is some brown storage staining, but nothing too offensive.   The last pictured block has eight points, but will need to be re-stitched and possibly re-cut to complete the star.
All of the blocks are pictured in the first collage photo.
Item is for only the stars as shown, no other fabric, templates or instructions are included.
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.
