CONCA7 Double Irish Chain Quilt
c.1880
84 x 84 inches
Maine or New Hampshire
$1,700
Red and white quilts are the second most popular color combination in
our country. This Double Irish Chain quilt is comprised of only solid
red and white fabrics.
Piecing on this quilt was done both by hand and by machine, while all
quilting is beautifully executed by hand. Each square has 1-1/2" sides
and are quilted with diagonal quilting. The white joining areas are
quilted with beautiful wreaths, also called medallions. Taking this quilt to
a higher graphic and collectable level is the 7-1/2" quadruple border.
There are three 1" strips with the outer border measuring 4". The
binding is only 1/4" making it harder for the quilter to work with. The border's
quilting is a diagonal grid 1/2" apart.
Solid color quilts are the easiest to blend in with a home's decor as
there are not competing calico prints.
Now organically hand washed and ready to be sent, with free shipping,
for your approval.
