A gorgeous pre-Civil War era quilt in madder dyed red, over dyed green, and chrome yellow calicoes. This antique textile is also completely hand pieced and quilted which adds another dimension of excellence to a beautifully executed quilt. Graphic over dyed green maple leaves on yellow dominate the central design and alternate with double madder dyed red calico joining blocks. Each block measures approximately 5 1/2 inches square. The inner 1 1/2 inch sawtooth border is in the same over dyed green and yellow calicoes with the outer 5 1/2 inch border in a madder dyed red calico. Four blocks executed in the Maid’s Puzzle pattern with 3/4 inch borders of their own accent the corners of the outer border. Wonderful!
A stunning early quilt by an expert quilt maker, this would be an excellent addition to an early American quilt collection and a joy to display in any room. In excellent condition it has been professionally hand washed by Betsey and is ready to be sent to your home for review on approval. Please ask Betsey for more details.
