October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came.
-George Cooper / from October’s Party
A beautifully worn red calico Ocean Waves quilt that is reminiscent of a bed of autumn leaves. She has been washed and loved over time and her red fabrics have worn to varying degrees, with the majority of the wear along two of her edges (see photos). Her quilting is dense and executed masterfully and she still has much love to give, whether you decide to keep her as is or trim her down a bit. Two of her edges have been replaced more recently. For the quilt lover who finds the weathered fabric beautiful, she’s a real treasure.
Measurements: 71” x 88”
$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 Partnership Against Domestic Violence (PADV) — an organization in Atlanta, Georgia that supports women and children survivors of domestic violence through various initiatives. To learn more about their work, visit their website at https://padv.org/
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.
