CONCA2 Log Cabin Sunshine and Shadows Quilt
c.1880
72 x 82 inches
Maine
$1,000
This Log Cabin Sunshine and Shadows design quilt is definitely what I
call a "cuddle" quilt. Created from "logs" that vary in width from 3/8"
to 3/4" in a wide variety of 1870's and 1880's calicoes in every
imaginable color. My eyes pick up the red and blue calicoes first...to
me they are the most prominent colors. The center chimneys are between 1-1/2"
and 2" square.
The inside cotton batting is nice and thick, supplying the warmth and
coziness needed on a cold rainy or snowy night. Due to the thickness of
this quilt the maker decided to tie the three layers together instead of
quilting.
The backing of this Log Cabin quilt is a muted beige plaid with blue
and white stripes. The backing is turned over to the front to create a
3/8" binding.
Graphically wonderful and unused. Now organically hand washed, this
quilt is ready to be sent on approval with free shipping.
