Looking at our Amish quilts, please take note that these colors are very difficult to photograph. They are almost always a darker shade than they show up in pictures. But as we always send on approval, you will be able to see for yourself. The diamond in a square pattern is one of my favorite patterns. This lovely crib quilt has never been used.

The two colors are actually a rich warm brown and a medium purple. The center square on point has 15" sides and is beautifully quilted with a medallion. The square around it is quilted with a running succession of hearts. A baby quilt made with love. The outside 6-1/2" border has beautiful vine quilting and is filled in with more hearts. The inner 2-1/2" border is quilted with a continuous row of hearts. There is a separately applied 7/8" binding in the same medium purple.

Once again as with all the antique Amish quilts I have, they are machine pieced and exquisitely hand quilted. I am happy to send this little gem for your approval with free shipping.
