QT904 Single Irish Chain Quilt Top
c.1880
76 x 76 inches
New England
$350
This graphic design was constructed from 2 patterns: an extended nine
patch and a miniature four patch, which are combined to create the Single
Irish Chain pattern.
The red and white color combination has always been one of the most
popular and well loved colors in quilts. This quilt top was meticulously
pieced with tiny hand stitches actually looking machine pieced, but it
is not.
The extended Nine Patch block measures 6-3/4" square as is the
measurement of the white joining block. The tiny squares in the four
patch measure 7/8". The outer border is pieced from triangles measuring
1-3/4" X 1-1/8" X 1-1/8". The entire quilt is framed with this border.
There are tiny holes in two white blocks. I will provide the same date
white to replace those squares. You may not even see these in the photo.
A stunning red and white quilt top that you may finish with your own
personal quilting design.
I am happy to send this top, with free shipping, for your approval.
