Scrappy Shadow Boxes Quilt
For the romantic, and lover of old floral fabrics, this Shadow Boxes quilt is a delight. Set against a beautiful pale peach fabric dotted with flower sprigs, 56 blocks were pieced using a soft white floral background and a scrappy array of mid-19th century fabrics, from rich florals to calicos and shirtings. Turn her over and her back is an exquisite fabric of brown and peach with a print that, upon careful examination, looks like little quilt blocks ready to be pieced! In excellent structural condition and washed by hand with just a few small stains and two or three places on her peach fabric that have discolored a bit. This quilt is a treasure awaiting her new home.

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.
