Winter Indigo Garden Patch Quilt
We need beauty because it makes us ache to be worthy of it.
– Mary Oliver
A perfectly moody rich indigo quilt for the colder months, this turn-of-century Garden Patch quilt has an array of the most romantic old fabrics, set against an incredibly beautiful indigo background. Zoom in to see the lovely print on the indigo fabric. The fabrics are truly the centerpiece of this quilt, with beautiful floral prints to lovely blacks, indigos and oranges. Each block is worthy of framing, it’s hard to choose a favorite! The indigo has a nice touch of fading in a couple small areas. The back is a warm, muslin cream, and the diagonal quilting and touch of extra batting lends the quilt a lovely slightly puffy quality. A visual and textural wonder, this quilt will bring joy for years to come. This quilt has been washed by hand and is in excellent condition. A few lighter squares that show a bit of age in color, as expected for her age. Lucky is the one who will bring her home!
Measurements: 63” x 76”
$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.
All quilts come with a muslin tag noting any known history, and an archival Micron pen for you to add yours.
15% of profits from this sale will go towards Safelight, a North Carolina-based nonprofit agency that provides support for survivors of interpersonal violence, sexual assault and child abuse. For more, see safelightfamily.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.
