Q9302 Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt
c.1955 with provenance available upon sald
74 x 90 inches
Saltsburg, Pennsylvania
$1,400
We adore this quilt! Such a happy quilt 🙂 There must be a thousand
1" hexagons, many of these are "fussy cut". That means every hexagon in
that group has the same exact print showing..ie. hexagons with three
masted schooners. We even have a row of hexagons of puppies!
The rage of certain colors have added aqua to the list of what people
are looking for. The prominent color here is aqua. However there are
dozens of other 1950's colors and prints. An eclectic delight in
patterns and colors.
Executed by hand...both pieced and quilted. Each hexagon pattern which
is outline quilted is also a pattern that can only be pieced by hand.
The exception here is the edge which has been machine closed with a
zig-zag stitch in miniature.
There is a border of two rows of hexagons in various shades of Aqua,
creating a frame for this quilt.
The wholecloth backing is a very distinctive 1950's print in orange and
brown, which in turn makes this quilt reversible.
Now organically hand washed and ready to be sent for your approval with
free shipping.
