Library of Feedsacks Postage Stamp Quilt
Spend hours pouring over the beautiful array of feedsack prints from the 1930s and 40s while resting under this wonderful Postage Stamp quilt. Look closely, and you will see that the patches are an assortment of squares as well as triangles, which gives the quilt a very fun, scrappy feel. The small pieces are set within frames of a fabulous cream fabric with purple floral prints. This quilt may have been finished later, as the cream colored back, which has been turned to make the trim, has a slightly newer feel. In excellent condition with just two or three small hidden stains on front and a few on back. The last photo shows the most visible of the tiny front stains. A wonderful piece of history to add to your collection!
Measurements: 78” x 81.5”
$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. Sales tax will be added to any Virginia state orders. Orders shipped to destinations outside of Virginia are not taxed.
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 The Family Place in Texas, a non-profit that empowers survivors of family violence by providing safe housing, counseling, and skills that create independence while building community engagement and advocating for social change to stop family violence.

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.
