Cindy's Antique Quilts

This atttractive red and green applique quilt has a touch of orange print in the centers of the roses. I call this a Whig Rose and it has alot going for it. The condition is excellent.  The design is somewhat different and it also has a border. The applique is well done and the hand quilting is at a nice 8-9 spi.  The rose has curved vines and the buds include some reverse applique. Another unusual twist to this quilt is the added red and green appliqued diamonds dividing the blocks, making somewhat of a sashing. The hand quilting is done  in a straight line diagonal throughout the quilt. For the binding the backing was brought forward to the front and machine stitched down, all of what looks to be original. A nice sized 9 block quilt. 

Offering this unused  antique quilt,,, Fruit Baskets with an attractive sawtooth border. This pattern is also called Basket of Triangles. The condition of the quilt appears to be excellent as it looks unused and has never even been washed. Probably just stored for the many years of its life. All hand quilted at 7-8 spi and has a cable quilting pattern on the border. The other quilting patterns on the quilt are show in the close up images. The colors of a good strong red and green on a muslin ground make this a very striking quilt with the border to set if all off. Lancaster County, Pa origin.   SALE $695.00

Offering this scrappy quilt made with lots of different fabrics from possibly a ten year span and done in a one patch hexagon pattern. The condition of the quilt is very good and its ready to enjoy or even have fun studying or exploring all the fabrics. It is hand quilted at 6 spi. There's a variety of fabrics including shirting prints, plaids, mourning prints, stripes and much more. A separate blue binding is  stitched on by machine.  Note the way the pattern is more wacky on the right side of the quilt. Really gives it it's "one of a kind" feel. From Missouri.
