1940s quilt blocks from Nutley, NJ


This set of wonderfully quirky friendship blocks came from a seller in Connecticut, but they were made in Nutley, New Jersey in the 1940s. I don't often buy blocks, but these I could not resist. Here are some pictures. Enjoy!

    These are adorable! You might consider documenting these on something like quiltindex. since some seem so original. Thanks for sharing. Genealogy search would be next for me...
