In perfect condition, this great cotton 20th century quilt has a color palette and design both fresh and vibrant. The Ocean Wave pattern is classic, very graphic and works well here with happy solids of yellow and lavender. Triple borders feature a 2 1/4 inch wide white and lavender sawtooth flanked by two 1 1/4 inch wide solid yellow borders, with the top and bottom edges having a fourth border in a slightly lighter hue of the same yellow and measuring 5 1/2 inch wide.

Hand quilting is lovely and includes floral centers in each yellow block, parallel lines in the purple and white waves, zigzag stitching in the two yellow borders, outline stitching in the sawtooth border and 3/4 inch diagonal cross hatch in the upper and lower yellow borders. Very nice and precise handwork. Backing this quilt is the lovely soft yellow cotton featured in the upper and lower borders on the front of the quilt. The 3/8 inch applied binding is the same solid lavender found in the pieced front.

A happy and graphic quilt that would be gorgeous on a bed or as graphic art for the wall it is in perfect, unused condition. Professionally hand washed by Betsey (its first bath) this quilt can be sent to you on approval for private viewing in your home.
