Antique Pyramids Quilt: dated 1893; Hand-Quilted (79x90 inches)

This Pyramids Quilt is dated 1893 and has been beautifully pieced and entirely hand-quilted. The quilting is in diagonals and diamonds in the body of the quilt and in concentric triangles along the four-sided border.

The back is a unique dusty rose with white circles that has been turned to the front and hand-stitched to form the binding. The cotton batting is lightweight.

The quilt is in excellent condition, with a small dark spot on one part of the sashing (see photos) and some age-related uneven fading of the fabrics, especially the green fabric. See photos.

This lovely quilt is clean and soft and measures 79 inches by 90 inches. From a smoke-free, pet-free home. Shown on a queen bed.
