This meticulously machine pieced cotton Streak Of Lightning quilt top is all ready for you to quilt by machine, hand quilt or just tie. This top may be tied as it is machine pieced and therefore the piecing is tight enough. This top was obviously pieced by an expert. What wonderful colors used together.

Each brick shaped piece measures 1-3/4" X 3-1/2". The same fabric is used for the entire length of each "Streak". There are very few repeats of prints used for the "Streaks". All fabrics date from c.1880 and earlier. All fabrics used are in mint condition. This is a piece of art appropriate for a bed, or a wonderfully graphic geometric piece of art for your wall.

I am happy to send, with free shipping, for your approval.
