In conclusion I have managed to get my vintage quilt displayed behind our bed. I bought it from a UK vender on eBay before Xmas because I cruel in love with it proximately! It was orginally from America and the vender said it contains some feedsack fabrics. It is all handpieced with no foundations, backed in flat muslin and palm and fingers quilted with an bend pattern. The blocks are approx 8" x 6.5". I delight in the eclectic mix of fabrics and some of the undomesticated prints that have been incorporated. I've kept the print quite huge if you click for more detail :)
I'm guessing it was in likelihood made in the 40s or 50s - anyone have any other ideas or info?
It is in fair good predicament, with only a couple of dwarfish holes, although some of the fabrics have faded badly. I had to transport the original bandage (which was the backing pile turned over and stitched to the front) as it was worn to a thread through in places. I added a new fillet and hanging sleeve in muslin. What info do you exercise the mind I should include on the label?
