I would call National Quilt museum in Paducah, Ky before driving there to make sure an expert will be onsite when you arrive. They aren't there every day.
Maybe take a picture and email it in beforehand.
The National Quilt Museum is located in Paducah Kentucky. I suggest your question be addressed with knowledgeable docents and on-site quilting experts. They can at least provide additional resources to answer your questions... Good Luck!
