Vintage Double Wedding Ring Cutter Quilt – 1930s Feedsack Fabrics, Exquisite Hand Quilting, 69” x 83”

A classic c. 1930s American Double Wedding Ring Quilt measuring 69” x 83”, offered as a cutter quilt or salvage restoration project. The fabrics that make up the rings include Depression-era florals, shirting calicoes, gingham checks, and novelty prints anchored by pastel pink and jade green four-patch cornerstones. 

Well loved and worn over generations, the workmanship on this piece is exceptional. The hand quilting is dense, precise, and varied throughout with center medallions hand quilted with central floral motifs and scrolling flowers, along with finely outlined ring paths and crosshatch grid quilting through the solid pink and green four-patch intersections.

The back is white cotton while the binding is very narrow green cotton that has been handstitched to the back. The cotton batting is very lightweight and thin.
