Graphically wonderful and filled with an exciting array of second quarter of the 19th Century fabrics...even some older! This lovingly used quilt will fit a queen size bed with a 15" drop or a king size bed with a 5" drop.

Completely hand pieced and hand quilted as the sewing machine was just entering the public domain. The pieced blocks measure 7-1/2" square with 2-1/2" joining strips or sashing. The diamonds measure 2-1/8" x 3 x 2-1/8" x 3". The Flying Geese border is 3-1/4" wide and holds the "geese" triangles measuring 2-1/8" X 3" X 2-1/8". There is a separately applied binding which is only 1/4" in width!

There is herringbone design quilting along with diagonal, outline and star design quilting.

If you choose to hang this quilt there are already 2" sleeves ..ready to hang
