Handmade baby quilt features a charming log cabin style design with concentric borders of navy blue and cream. Intricate hand-stitched heart patterns cover the cream sections and the solid navy reverse side. The decorative borders are adorned with adorable teddy bear motifs wearing tiny bow ties. This piece has historical significance, as it was a 2nd place winner at the 1988 Albuquerque New Mexico State Fair, as noted on the hand-written label and red embroidery on the back. It shows some light yellowing/spotting on the cream fabric consistent with age.
