QT914 Bars and Bricks Quilt Top
c.1870
60 x 86 inches
New England
As is: $215
The reason I said "as is"...is due to one hole and some stains...these
tops were usually not washed until quilted.
This is a real scrap bag pieced quilt top...except for the bars. There
is one piece that was pieced from 4 different pieces in all the same
print. There is a blue brick that is pieced from two different
blues..one stripe and one plaid...what character ! Each brick measures 2
3/4" X 4 1/2". The bars measure apx. 3 " and are comprised of two
different fabrics...only one print for each bar. I am happy to give you
a piece of 1870's stripe to "patch" the hole.
Always sent on approval.
