A perfect miniature Victorian Crazy Quilt is a rare
treasure. In all these years I have found only a few original miniature
Crazy Quilts..this one is exceptional, as the quilt is finished with a
beautiful deep rust color silk velvet backing!
This diminutive quilt shows a wonderful array of 1870's and 1880's silk
and silk velvet fabrics. The embellishment of stitchery is perfect even
displaying some stitching I have never seen before...Could the creator
have designed these herself? There are dozens of perfectly executed
embellishment stitches along with the beautiful fabrics. The little
quilt is finished off with a silk rope style cording, in a matching deep
rust color to the backing, used instead of a conventional binding adding
to the sophistication of this piece of art.
Perfect to be displayed either on your wall, in that special small
area, or as a centerpiece for your fabulous table.
All quilts are sent with free shipping for your in-home approval.
