This is a stunning hand quilted indigo quilt. It has beautiful trapunto work and the Checkerboard looks woven.
This hand pieced and quilted quilt is circa 1876, the 100th Anniversary of American Independence. It is pieced in such a way that it looks more like a woven blanket than a quilt. The intricate hand piecing and outstanding hand quilting shows just what an expert needle artist the maker was.
