How exciting to find an unused quilt that can actually fit today's king size beds. Comprised of two fabrics, white and a blue calico with a tiny flower and a dot of pale orange in its center. Made of 8 inch blocks with semicircles in each corner with 2-1/4 inch sides. Every block is outline quilted. The semicircle corners have echo quilting. The center of each block is done with spiderweb quilting. There are places where you can still see the pencil lines the quilter used. There is a separately applied 3/8" binding. In unused condition, professionally hand washed by Betsey.
