A fantastic quilt in excellent condition, this piece has a wide variety of fabrics from the early 1800's, including lovely early double pinks, Prussian blues, and madder dyed prints. The Extended Nine Patch is one of the earliest pieced patterns, and this quilt has been totally hand pieced and hand quilted using a concentric square design. The backing is homespun linen with a ¼ inch separately applied binding. Professionally hand washed by Betsey.
