Fine floral and print strippy quilt.
This quilter had access to numerous different fabrics many of which we can identify with as over the years we have seen them in other wholecloth quilts . Maybe this maker was a professional quilters and these strips are the off cuts from the various quilts she had made
Whatever its story its a charming, calm and elegant mix .
The reverse is a simple patchwork of pale blue satin cotton with a unusual red print on rich cream.
The hand quilting is of simple crosshatching or 'square on point' in a pale yellow quilting thread .
