Cheddar and Turkey Red Starburst Quilt
A wonderful variation on a Lone Star quilt, this circa 1880s Starburst beauty is a cheddar and turkey red fabric lover’s dream. With a gorgeous touch of fading from being well over a century old, this quilt is soft and inviting, with a beautiful lived-in feel. The octagonal stars on each corner are a beautiful accent to the corners of your bed. She is also just as lovely folded and displayed at the foot of the bed or on a chair. Her binding may have been replaced later and is a slightly brighter red. She has been thoroughly washed by hand and is in very good condition, with just one spot on an edge that has a bit of wear and tear. A simple back patch would be a great reinforcement. Some slight aging on the white fabric that is hard to capture in photos and a couple tiny light spots. See last photo for the most evident area. A stunning antique piece to add to your collection!
Measurements: 70” x 80”

Note on antique/vintage quilts: Many of the quilts we sell have been loved, slept under, washed, sunshine dried, taken on picnics, slept on underneath the stars, and lived lifetimes before arriving at our doorstep. You can expect to see repairs made by later generations, fraying around the edges or in certain blocks, discoloration or yellowing, cotton/wool batting—or as we like to call them, tiny sheep—peeking through. They are imperfect, but their imperfections are charming to us and we hope you feel the same. They are reminders to us of their old age and the history to which they've been a witness. We try our best to note any imperfections, but it’s possible we might miss one here and there. Well-crafted, handmade antique quilts in their original form are becoming scarcer, and we believe it's vital that we preserve them and continue to love them, imperfections and all.
Because these quilts are one-of-a-kind and we are a tiny enterprise, we do not accept returns; please review all photos and the description carefully and ask any questions you may have prior to purchasing.
