Lotus Blossom Quilt
Pattern: Lotus Blossom Variation
Date: c. 1890-1900

A wonderful, vibrant take on the Lotus Blossom pattern in red and green which makes each block look like a holiday wreath
Expert piecing in all the tiny green triangles and red petals and gorgeous quilting throughout, with feathered wreaths surrounded by grid quilting and a feather vine around the perimeter
A soft hand and nice drape
Maker/origin unknown
Washed by hand and in great condition with just a light residual water stain on one edge and one very light shadow of stain as shown in last photo
Measurements: 72” x 88”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount. Price for smaller items have been adjusted (lowered) to account for the lower shipping cost.

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.
