2nd Vintage Ocean Waves quilt from Patty

Another of Patty's children is
getting married, so another wedding gift of a quilt.  These quilt tops were hand pieced by I believe Patty's mother, circa 1960"s, but many of the fabrics are probably older than that.  Quilted with edge to edge Baptist Fans
Just to give some perspective of the size of the pieces "grandma" was working with, that's a dime.  Wow.  I've just done the math 168 blocks, About 25-30 pieces per block.  That's a LOT of little pieces of fabric.
