Description

This magnificent antique hand-quilted Nine-Patch quilt measures approximately 65 inches wide by 80 inches long and is a true collector's dream, showcasing a dizzying array of period cotton fabrics including indigo-dyed prints, blue-and-white ticking stripes, pink calicos, dark paisleys, plaids, and a cheerful floral center field that practically hums with 19th-century charm. The quilt top is composed of alternating Nine-Patch blocks set against sashing strips of striped shirting fabric, all framed by a lovely pink floral border and finished with a teal decorative binding edged in a small-scale printed trim that speaks to careful, deliberate craftsmanship. The backing is a plain white cotton that shows honest age-related foxing and toning consistent with well-loved antique textiles, while the hand quilting throughout features a cross-hatch diamond pattern executed in white thread with the characteristic uneven beauty of genuine hand stitchery. Condition is good for its age with expected wear, minor fabric fatigue in some patches, and a small repair patch visible on the backing corner, all of which only deepen the story this remarkable heirloom has to tell.
