This absolutely joyful vintage Wild Rose appliqué quilt, circa 1940s, is made of cheerful pink flowers connected by aqua lattice vines across a crisp white ground. The floral appliqué work is hand-stitched and exquisite.
The color palette is classic soft bubblegum pink, aqua blue-green, buttery yellow centers, and creamy white and the hand-quilting is intricate and extraordinarily dense and done in tiny crosshatch grids that would have taken hundreds of hours.
The back is an ivory/cream cotton while the binding is pink cotton that has been hand-stitched to both sides. The cotton batting is lightweight.
CONDITION: The quilt has been well cared for and is in excellent vintage condition with no issues noted.
The quilt measures approximately 80” x 80”, a highly usable size for a full bed or decorative queen display.
