CON RJ 4 Rose of Sharon
c.1850
86 x 86
probably Pennsylvania
$4,300

This gorgeous quilt was made by a highly skilled needlewoman; both the appliqué and diagonal quilting stitches are extremely even and miniscule. Five large adaptations of a Rose of Sharon pattern have been completed in overdyed green, solid yellow, turkey red, and a tiny red speckled stripe. Graceful vines and flowers echoing the inner roses meander around the border. The narrow white binding has been turned over from the front to the white backing.

This beautiful, feminine quilt is ready to decorate your home for the holidays! Professionally hand washed by Betsey.

Betsey Telford's Rocky Mountain Quilts
  Betsey Telford is a member of the prestigious Antiques Council of America, as well as the Maine Antiques Dealers Association (MADA), the New Hampshire Dealers Association (NHDA), and the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiques (SPNEA).

Rocky Mountain Quilts specializes in the full range of antique quilts dating from 1780 to the 1940’s. However, our African American pieces date from pre Civil War into the 1960’s. My inventory reflects all categories of quilts; pieced, appliqued, folk art, Mennonite, Amish, African American, Victorian Crazy quilts, and Broderie Perse, among others. Antique quilts can be made solely from cotton, wool, or silk, or made from a combination of these fabrics. Our antique quilts are truly textile art for the wall or bed. We have quilts to fit beds of all sizes, from doll to king, and about 90% of our quilts have been professionally hand washed by me. We also offer antique quilt tops, blocks, quilt fragments, feedsacks, and vintage linens.

Did you know that antique quilts are the most under priced art form in America today? Whether you are just beginning, or already a major collector, let me help you find the perfect piece of textile art to grace your home. Purchase with confidence; all of my quilts are guaranteed for authenticity and condition.
