Description
Colorful Vintage Quilt This quilt is hand pieced, embroidered, and quilted. It is made of a heavy weight white woven cotton. All of the stitching is very consistent. If I counted correctly there are 8 stitches per inch. I'm sure is was made by one seamstress. The same fabric is on the top, the bottom, and binding. There are 32 field squares and there are 4 different larger squares toward the corners. They are embroidered with a colorful delicate design. I've tried to show in the pictures the different quilting patterns. It is clean without odor. I purchased this quality quilt in a Mennonite community. This owner had grown and lived in the area, and had many fine Victorian antiques. Someone told me the quilt was probably from the 30's or 40's. I don't know its age, or how to determine it. If you are interested, I'm sure I missed something you need to know. Please email with questions or comments, I will try to answer intelligently. The pictures don't do it justice. You won't be dissappointed.
