Vintage 1930s Dutch Tulip Cutter Quilt – Softly Faded Pastel – Longarm Quilted – 79” x 80”

$143.20 $179.00

  • Details
    This beautifully timeworn Dutch Tulip appliqué quilt dates to the 1930s–early 1940s, featuring a soft, romantic palette of pastel pinks, buttery yellows, and pale greens typical of the Depression era. Over time, the colors have faded to a light almost watercolor effect, giving the quilt an aged and primitive character.

    The quilt has been later longarm quilted, stabilizing the piece while preserving the original appliqué top. Its soft hand and large scale make it an excellent candidate for cutting and repurposing.

    Condition:
    • Overall significant fading, especially in pinks and yellows
    • Muted contrast consistent with age and washing
    • Fraying and wear to binding edges
    • General softness and wear from age and use
    • Structurally stable due to later quilting

    Due to condition, this quilt is best suited as a cutter or project quilt, and is priced accordingly.
