Q6345 Unique Tied Double Sided Quilt
Side A: Nine Patch
Side B: Tumbling Blocks
c.1900
48 x 48 inches
Maine
$395
How unusual to find a double sided quilt of any size.
Usually when a quilt top was pieced it would then be stuffed and backed and be ready to use.
In this case, both sides are complete pieced quilt tops.
Both sides are pieced by hand and the tops are layered with cotton and reverse tied apx every 4”.
The 1/2” binding is also hand applied.
This quilt measures 48 x 48” which is very unusual for crib quilt.
Crib quilts are generally rectangle shapes measuring apx 36 x 48.
It’s possible that the original purpose of this quilt was to be used as a lap quilt.
You have the optical illusion tumbling blocks on one side and the nine patch block formation on the other.
Hand washed by Betsey and ready for snuggling.
