HOUSE AND POSTAGE STAMP BORDER ANTIQUE QUILT TOP

HOUSE AND POSTAGE STAMP BORDER ANTIQUE QUILT TOP
   

 



A unique house composition, this was intended either as a crib quilt or as the centerpiece of  larger quilt. I purchased it framed where it was described as a crib quilt, then discovered it was a top, not yet completed. I can have it re-mounted for the purchaser, or in this state it can be completed as a crib, or expanded by an imaginative quiltmaker. The house is not from a published pattern but is a unique design. The postage stamp one patch border is a fabric lover's dream of differing earth tone prints from the third quarter of the 19th century

37" x 41" c. 1880s
