Victorian Antique Chintz Calico Cotton Fabric 12 Patch Square Block Quilt
This early Victorian era antique chintz calico cotton fabric 12 patch square block quilt dates from 1850. It is all hand stitched, with a white cotton background, made up of a variety of colorful chintz, calico cotton fabric pieces. This early quilt has been beautifully handmade with wonderful workmanship, done in a 12 patch signature square style pattern design and tiny quilted stitching, approximately 10 stitches per inch. It is backed in a white cotton fabric, with cotton batting inside, quilting stitching going through the backside and a folded over binding border edging. The quilt measures 89 by 76 inches. It is in fair as-is condition, has not been cleaned and came straight out of a trunk. There are several small stains scattered about and a larger water spot stain in the upper corner, two small holes in each corner where it was perhaps hung and also a few deteriorated frayed fabric square pieces (see close-ups). This is truly a superb piece of antique textile quilting folk art!
