Spunky Star Quilt
your little voice
over the wires came leaping
and i felt suddenly
dizzy
with the jostling and shouting of merry flowers
/ ee cummings
This spunky sister has a style of her own: most star quilts are white with colored stars, but this one features an adorable pink and white vintage floral fabric with white stars. She is fun, fabulous, and soft. She has medium weight batting and lovely hand stitching. She also bears a darling little patch on one edge, which we adore. We imagine this little lady joining you for weekend trips with your girlfriends, folded up at the foot of your bed for a pop of color, or wrapped around you for movie night.
She has fraying along the edges, a longish tear on one edge, a few tiny spots and areas of discoloration, some cute mending, and a few rips along the stars that do not go through to the other side.
Measurements: 77” x 67
All quilts come with a muslin tag noting any known history, and an archival Micron pen for you to add yours.
10% of profits from this sale will go towards Gray Panthers, a US-based advocacy organization for the elderly whose mission is to combat ageism and achieve social justice through intergenerational collaboration.
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.
your little voice
over the wires came leaping
and i felt suddenly
dizzy
with the jostling and shouting of merry flowers
wee skipping high-heeled flames
courtesied before my eyes
or twinkling over to my side
looked up
with impertinently exquisite faces
floating hands were laid upon me
I was whirled and tossed into delicious dancing
up
up
with the pale important
stars and the Humorous
moon
dear girl
how i was crazy how i cried when i heard
over time
and tide and death
leaping
sweetly
your voice
