EYE CATCHING Vintage Triangles Birds in Flight 1890's Antique Quilt ~SMALL PIECES!
This ELEGANT cotton 1890's birds in flight/triangles quilt is hand pieced and hand quilted. Each block contains 72 small triangle pieces, each measuring just over 1" per side.
It measures 58" X 74" and is in excellent condition, with a couple of small, faint age spots (mostly on the back) and no wear. There are straight line, clover, and braided designs quilted throughout at an even 9-10 stitches to the inch, with faint pencil marks still visible in places. The back and hand stitched binding are the same slightly off-white unbleached muslin, and the batting is thin. Whimsical conversation prints can be found in places.
The HANDSOME EARLY FABRICS, SMALL PIECES, and NICE QUILTING make this 19th century beauty stand out!
