vintage handmade patchwork quilt completed in December 1976.
This is a true labor of love, boasting incredible provenance thanks to the original maker’s paper tracking tag still attached to the back lining seam!
According to the maker\'s meticulous records, this quilt features an astonishing 2,156 individual fabric squares arranged in a precise 44 x 49 grid.
Design & FeaturesMassive Statement Size: Measuring an impressive 100 inches by 112 inches, this quilt easily fits a modern King-size bed with a generous drape, or can be used as a stunning oversized throw/wall hanging.
Authentic 1970s Aesthetics: A wonderful \"scrappy\" combination of mid-century fabrics, including retro plaids, bright double-knit polyesters, ginghams, vibrant neon pops, micro-checks, and sweet vintage florals.
Unique Construction Details: This quilt features an eye-catching exposed seam / raw-edge look on the reverse patchwork panels, giving it an incredible textured, rustic look when flipped or folded.
Condition. This quilt is in phenomenal vintage condition given its age. There are no notable stains, large holes, or chemical odors. The colors remain incredibly bright and punchy. It has been stored carefully.
The Fray-Resistant Choice:
Because double-knit polyester doesn\'t unravel easily, it allowed the quilter to leave the inner seams raw/exposed on the reverse side safely. This adds great textural charm and functionality, as the quilt won\'t disintegrate when washed.
Durability: Polyester and acrylic are highly resilient synthetics. This quilt is robust, heavy, easy to clean, and essentially moth-proof.
Please review all high-resolution photos closely to inspect the intricate patchwork, the original 1976 maker\'s tag, and the edge finishes.
