QT830 Sizteen Patch or Checkerboard Quilt Top
c.1885
65 x 75 inches
Maine
$425
Completely created from unused fabrics, this scrap bag quilt top is just so visually captivating.
Perfect for either a bed or a couch, or as art for your wall.
Each block measures 7" square with the small squares having 1-3/4" sides.
There are 56 blocks with 16 pieces in each block. Each block is comprised of 4 four-patch blocks.
Sometimes this is easy to see. The sashing is 1-3/4" in width and made from a 1880's burgundy
fabric with tiny white polka dots. We have a wonderful variety of fabrics dating from the
1860's to the 1880's. I actually have three original scrapbags from the 19th century with
all the pieces inside....dozens of pieces!
This quilt top is simpler to quilt, as all the quilting is straight line.....it just takes time and patience :-)
