Description

Antique Patchwork Quilt #2An antique patchwork quilt (c. 1900) in red, orange, sand and white, sourced from America. Painstakingly handcrafted, and lovingly cared for and cherished for over a century. The design consists of a repeating 'basket' pattern, framed by a thick stripe border and finished with a red edge binding the stripes are imperfectly straight, adding to its folky charm. Topped all over with subtle ornate stitching, in thread with a hint of blue. Very good
