1890s Cheddar Applique Quilt
This applique pattern is a mystery, unlike anything we have ever seen, it is likely the imagination and invention of the maker— a special one of a kind. Possibly the simplification of a more complicated motif.
Regardless, this quilt has more cheddar fabric than we normally see in a quilt, and the satisfying symmetrical grid pattern is wonderful.
A piece sturdy enough for use, but would also look lovely displayed as it presents as a whole quite magnificently.

Slight fading and toning throughout, with a few tiny discoloration spots, areas where a turned under fabric edges has come untucked, a few spots of quilting thread loss, slight wear to the binding, and loss of binding and wear to one corner.
