The 19th century quilter(s) of this beautiful piece must have had the most wonderful scrap box of fabrics. Against a background of an exquisite brown and pink floral fabric, sit thirty blocks pieced in the most eye-catching and interesting variety of textiles, one more saturated than the next. It is worth taking a tour through some of the close-ups to admire the beautiful fabrics, from rich purples to plaids to leafy copper browns. This quilt is a feast to the eyes! Her back is made with a cozy, soft brushed cotton, in cream and a dark blue — a nice bold contrast to the front. The fan quilting shows beautifully on the backside. In excellent condition and washed by hand with just a few little spots on the back, this is a very special scrappy quilt to add to your collection.
Measurements: 65” x 79”

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.
