Q9260 Double Wedding Ring Quilt
c.1928
58 x 72 inches
New England
$1,400
During the depression era, the Double Wedding Ring quilt was the most
popular quilt pattern for women to create. Usually created for a special
wedding. In 35 years and dozens of these quilts, I have never
seen a single color and also a solid fabric used to create this quilt
pattern. This wonderful medium blue and white quilt appears never to
have been used. It was probably too special, and was put away to
be saved. Now with a fresh organic hand wash it is ready for you to
either display or use as a throw on a bed or couch or as a very special
gift.
All rings have been executed using the solid blue and finished with the
same blue for the binding. All work is executed by hand. The quilting is
extraordinary; probably the most quilting I have ever seen on a quilt
of this pattern. Each blue ring has 4 rows of quilting as well as being
outline quilted. The large area of white has an absolutely intense
quilting pattern; the only name I can find is a very small flower blossom
design. The white "eyes" of this quilt are cross hatch quilted every
half inch. The outside border has 4 rows of quilting.
Easy to fit into your decor, loving blues, due to the solid fabric. A
treasure for yourself or as wedding present. Now organically hand washed
and ready to be sent to your home for approval.
