Q8994 Steeplechase
c.1928
76 x 76 inches
Palmersville, PA
$2,200
This beautifully executed quilt must have been created by a woman who
received an "A" in geometry. A piece of art that holds one's attention as
one gazes at the perfect graphics and exquisite quilting. ....and in
addition the quilt was created in blue and white.
Both hand and machine pieced then beautifully hand quilted and finished
with an applied 1/4 " binding half by machine. The cobalt blue squares
that comprise this Steeplechase design measure 1-1/2 " inches. The
outside triangles that line both sides of a large border (almost 8-3/4"
wide) measure 1-1/4" x 1-1/4 " x 1-7/8" creating a sawtooth edge framing
both sides. The entire border is quilted with a gorgeous meandering
vine which actually encompasses the entire width of the border. The main
body of this "wow" quilt is covered with 1" crosshatch
quilting....except that inside each white square there appears to be a
quilted four leaf clover.
A treasure to behold that is not only stunning, sophisticated and
beautifully executed, but at the same time this quilt radiates a feeling
of peace.
In unused condition and now organically hand washed by Betsey.
This quilt can be sent to you for at home approval.
