Evening to Morning: A Checkerboard One Patch Quilt
Pattern: Checkerboard One Patch
Date: c. 1870
Provenance/Notes:
An exquisite heirloom quality quilt made in a classic checkerboard pattern with two beautiful fabrics with floral motifs. This quilt is one to enjoy and pass down to the next generation.
Notice the double rod quilting throughout, especially visible on the indigo squares
This quilt has great hand and drape and is generously sized, suitable for a larger bed (see measurements below)
Maker/origin unknown; hails from Pennsylvania
Washed by hand and in excellent condition with just a tiny dot, a tiny 1/2" surface tear, and a light fold line on back (see last photo)
Measurements: 88" x 98"
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount. Price for smaller items have been adjusted (lowered) to account for the lower shipping cost.
International customers: If you enter a shipping address outside of the US, you will not be charged for shipping upon checkout. A separate invoice will be sent once shipping is calculated. If you need a shipping estimate, please reach out ahead of time. Tax will be added only to Virginia state orders. Orders shipped to destinations outside of Virginia are not taxed.
15% of profits from every quilt sale in this next collection will go towards the Tahirih Justice Center -- a national organization based in Falls Church, Virginia, that aims to protect immigrant women and girls fleeing gender-based violence and persecution. For more about their important work, see www.tahirih.org
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.
