1850 Square In Square Summer Quilt
One of the loveliest assortment of antique calicos we’ve seen this year. Somehow compelling and full of summer promise in its airy presentation.
It is comprised of 64 blocks, 5.5×5.5 inches, set on point, in a streak of lightning setting with 2.5 inch wide cheddar sashing, and partial block setting triangles.
Perfect for the warmer months.
D E T A I L S
How it’s made: Hand pieced, there is no batting, and the backing and piping edge appear to be a 20th century addition, and applied by machine. There is no quilting.
Weight: Light
Measurements laid flat: 63” × 66”
C O N D I T I O N
In fair condition with color loss to the cheddar in a couple of areas likely due to bleach and improper cleaning, small spots, and one area of wear from folding.
Most importantly: Please do not cut this quilt for a coat or other project. It is too beautiful and in gorgeous condition and a work of art in and of itself. It would be tragic to cut up such a beautiful piece of textile history.
⋒ This is an antique piece, all photos have been taken in natural light and with limited editing to reflect its condition. Please keep in mind all antique pieces have little imperfections and reflect the story and charm of the piece.
⋒ This find will ship to you within one week of purchasing. International and combined shipping is available, please contact us via instagram DM at @Folkling for a personalized shipping quote.
