  • Details
    This striking antique Arrowhead Quilt is made of soft white cotton set against beautifully aged indigo-blue blocks. Dating to approximately 1900–1920, the quilt features a repeating geometric arrow block framed by a simple double indigo border.

    The hand quilting is dense, with evenly spaced stitching and in shell and diagonal grids. The back is white cotton while the binding is blue cotton that has been hand-stitched to both sides.

    This quilt is being offered as a cutter quilt due to condition, but it still presents beautifully and has been soaked and hand-washed. It unfortunately has areas of thinning/fabric loss/stress in several areas (see photos) along with a fraying binding.
