Vintage 1930s Double Wedding Ring Cutter Quilt – Scrappy Feedsack Fabrics – 68” x 81”

This 1930s Double Wedding Ring quilt is pieced from a scrappy variety of Depression-era fabrics, including:
• Soft, light-ground florals typical of Depression-era cottons
• Cheerful novelty prints and small geometrics
• Pastel tones in pinks, blues, greens, and lavenders
• Bright chrome yellows used at the four-patch blocks
• Shirting-style prints and simple calicoes
• A mix of fine cottons, many likely repurposed household textiles

The hand-quilting is in outlines of the interlocking patchwork and in floral/geometric patterns in the open white areas. The back is white cotton while the binding is green cotton that has been machine stitched to the front and hand-stitched to the back. The cotton batting is unsized and lightweight.

CONDITION: About 90% of the quilt remains in very good, sturdy condition, but the quilt is being sold as a cutter quilt because it shows significant wear and fabric loss, especially along parts of the border/edges. There are scattered holes, fabric loss, and age-related fading. See photos.
