Winter Sky Crossroads Quilt
A gorgeous landscape of pink, gray, and blue calicos from the 1870s, this Crossroads pattern quilt has all the lovely colors of a winter sky. Zoom in to see the incredible variety of fabrics in the blocks as well as the tiny dotted background fabric. The blues are a particularly stunning accent amidst the pinks and browns. A bright red trim is a fun contrast and her back is a lovely creamy muslin. Structurally in excellent condition, she does have some light scattered stains as shown in photos, and one single blue block that has lightly bled into her immediate vicinity. Because of her color scheme, none of these are very noticeable, unless inspecting closely. An unusually larger size, and she will fully cover a queen bed and much of a king. She has been thoroughly washed by hand and hung to dry and has a crinkly crispness which will break in nicely with use. Who will be her lucky new owner?
Measurements: 87” x 87”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount. If you need shipping outside the 48 contiguous states (Alaska, Hawaii, worldwide), please choose Local Pickup at checkout and reach out for a separate shipping invoice. Sales tax will be added to any Virginia state orders. Orders shipped to destinations outside of Virginia are not taxed.
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 Safelight, a North Carolina-based nonprofit agency that provides support for survivors of interpersonal violence, sexual assault and child abuse. For more, see safelightfamily.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.
