Sky and Tree Mosaic Quilt
The pond
vanishes, and the white field over which
the fox runs so quickly brings out
its blue shadows. And the wind pumps its
bellows. And at evening especially,
the piled firewood shifts a little,
longing to be on its way.

A striking and unusual quilt done in the Mosaic block, this 1870s beauty brings the color of sky and earth into your home. Beautifully pieced and quilted, with little quilted circles on each hexagon, her graphic design is a lovely compliment to her soft palate. Her colors have faded some over time, especially the brown which was likely once an oxblood color. She has been washed by hand and hung to dry and is in excellent condition for her age. The only condition issues to note are one very small surface wear hole and some smudge/light discoloration marks that remain despite washing. A few little marks on her white back and her overall fading should also be noted. She is beautiful laid over a bed and is a pretty way to usher in the season.
Measurements: 72” x 95”
$20 flat rate shipping includes insurance coverage for the full purchase amount.
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 Partnership Against Domestic Violence (PADV) — an organization in Atlanta, Georgia that supports women and children survivors of domestic violence through various initiatives. To learn more about their work, visit their website at https://padv.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.
