Wow! A gorgeous red, white and green pieced quilt in the Ohio Star on Point pattern. Made by an expert needlewoman the 8 x 8 inch blocks are hand pieced using Turkey red and over dyed green calicoes. The white joining blocks and 9 ½ inch wide border are intricately hand quilted with wreaths, cross hatching, echo outline and parallel lines and graceful feathered vines. The Ohio Star blocks include outline, parallel line and cross hatch stitching for the fine quilting.

The backing is the same white fabric as the front as is the beautifully hand applied and tiny 3/16” binding. Such a magnificent piece to grace your bed or an amazing and eye popping piece of art for a wall. This elegant antique quilt is in excellent condition and has been professionally hand washed by Betsey. Please ask her for more details. Quilts are always sent on approval.
