Harvest Baskets Quilt
A wonderful combination of a traditional pattern with antique fabrics executed in a way that feels modern and graphic, this basket quilt from the late 1800s is a delight. Her beautiful fan quilting ripples in round waves across her many small and large angles, and her pattern (especially with her “half-baskets” around her border) feels half basket quilt/ half birds-in-the-air. She has been thoroughly washed and undergone some loving repair — several of her shattered triangles were replaced by hand using period fabric. She has a few small stains on front that mostly blend into the color scheme and a few marks on back, and one small surface hole, as shown, but she shows beautifully and is a great piece for this fall and winter season.
Measurements: 70” x 91”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount.
All quilts come with a muslin tag noting any known history, and an archival Micron pen for you to add yours.
15% of profits from this sale will go towards Tubman’s Hopetober campaign during domestic violence awareness month. Tubman provides safe shelter, legal services, mental and chemical health counseling, youth programming, and community education throughout the Twin Cities. See tubman.org for more information on their important work.
Note on antique/vintage quilts: Many of the quilts we sell have been loved, slept under, washed, sunshine dried, taken on picnics, slept on underneath the stars, and lived lifetimes before arriving at our doorstep. You can expect to see repairs made by later generations, fraying around the edges or in certain blocks, discoloration or yellowing, cotton/wool batting—or as we like to call them, tiny sheep—peeking through. They are imperfect, but their imperfections are charming to us and we hope you feel the same. They are reminders to us of their old age and the history to which they've been a witness. We try our best to note any imperfections, but it’s possible we might miss one here and there. Well-crafted, handmade antique quilts in their original form are becoming scarcer, and we believe it's vital that we preserve them and continue to love them, imperfections and all.
Because these quilts are one-of-a-kind and we are a tiny enterprise, we do not accept returns; please review all photos and the description carefully and ask any questions you may have prior to purchasing.
