Hand pieced and hand quilted, this gorgeous late 19th century quilt boasts many wonderful scraps. From Lace prints to madder designs and glazed cottons that still shine, this quilt has been well cared for. A few of the triangles have been patched upon close inspection, conserved in a tactful way. There are a few, light, scattered marks but overall this quilt is a beauty.
The backing is a striking bar back, squares & triangle motif alternating with some trailing paisley vine on chocolate ground. The quilt is bound in a red (with yellow and black figure) calico in excellent condition. There are two rows of machine stitching that run parallel to each other all the way around the start of the inner border edge.
Condition: Excellent. Never used. Well maintained. A few careful replacements of triangles on close inspection.
Weight: Medium, soft
Size: 83 x 88”
