Little Pink Robbing Peter to Pay Paul Quilt
It’s hard not to fall in love with this sweet little 1880s quilt, stitched in the prettiest pink and white calicos, with her back dotted with tiny flowers. A Robbing Peter to Pay Paul pattern throughout her center, and framed with a border of Flying Geese, this little quilt was understandably loved. There is so much to enjoy in observing her pattern, her beautiful piecing, and her old fabric. Please do note that there is overall fabric wear on the piece and trim and a slight touch of wavy nice to her edges, although when tacked down on the wall, she still hangs beautifully. A couple seam openings and a very worn edge. She has been soaked and washed to restore her beauty, and is ready to become a little treasure and piece of quilt history in your collection.
Measurements: 37” x 37”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount. If you need shipping outside the 48 contiguous states (Alaska, Hawaii, worldwide), please choose Local Pickup at checkout and reach out for a separate shipping invoice.

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.
