was $1400 now $850

This quilt is comprised of two fabrics: an 1870’s black stripe calico and a medium blue geometric.  The wholecloth backing is the same blue print as the front, making the quilt completely reversible.  The quilt is hand pieced, but the binding was applied by machine.  The piece is hand quilted with cross hatch and rope quilting. Unused and professionally hand washed by Betsey.Please ask Betsey for the reasons why she marked this quilt down!
