On this day in 1917, the National Hockey League opened its first season with Montreal beating Ottawa and Toronto.
Lily Hockey, Edith Waterhouse and Olive Sagendorf hand pieced this Scrap YoYo Quilt between 1930-1949 in Guernsey, Channel Island in the United Kingdom. The quilt was documented by its owner during the Connecticut Quilt Search Project.
