Q9307 Liberty Star Quilt
Dated 1942
84 x 84 inches
New England
$1,800
A truly Patriotic quilt, created during World War II ,that appears never
to have been used...I do know that we are the first to wash it. This
beauty still feels "crisp"! Having a quilt that actually shows motion
takes a pattern to another level.. This quilt can easily be used on a
bed or hung as art on your wall.
Comprised of three fabrics..a red with stars, a blue with stars, and
white. All hand executed..both piecing and quilting. The blocks measure
approximately 14" square with a wide sashing that measures 5" both
horizontally and vertically. The separately applied binding measures
1/4" and is in the same white as the body of the quilt. The backing is
also white making it easy to see the extensive quilting.
The quilting stitches are very even and small. The quilting patterns are
interesting. All bars are outline quilted, sashing is a chain design,
the corner squares have a quilted daisy pattern. A daisy quilted
pattern, a touch of whimsy, must mean something to the maker...The
opposite corner blocks are quilted with a six pointed star pattern.
The size of this quilt would fit a queen size bed. Now organically hand
washed and ready to send, with free shipping, for your approval.
