Q8920 Folk Art Sampler Quilt
c.1880
75 x 88 inches
Pennsylvania, with initials "H.D."
$3,400
Whimsical, folksy , happy and original. My way of describing this
amazing piece of folk art. The designer has even created sampler blocks
that are samplers within the sampler. I would not be surprised if her
husband was a carpenter or builder. What a wonderful way to show what
is important in her life, but also the designs she loved. Completely
hand pieced and beautifully hand quilted with many different patterns,
this quilt was used lovingly. There are over 50 quilt patterns on this
one Folk Art original quilt! Many of these patterns require a sewer of
expert ability. The Sunburst and the ball being two of the most
difficult to piece.
I see this quilt hung as art on the wall of a great room. However, there
is no reason why it should not be used on a bed.
Organically hand washed and ready to be sent for your at home approval
