1940s Indigo Printed Feed Sack Quilt
We are drawn to the weathered indigo feed sacks on the back of this quilt. Some of the writing and print from the feed sacks is still visible through the indigo dye.
It has aged beautifully from colors that range from deep lavender to stone washed lilac. The front of the quilt features charming pastel floral feed sack blocks and is astonishingly soft.
We would choose to display this quilt using the back as the prominent side.

Several holes that go all the way through as well as small spots of exposed batting throughout and small spots of discoloration. Fading and uneven color to fabric on the back of the quilt.
