This Pennsylvania Double Irish Chain quilt is in excellent condition. Wonderful solids of cheddar, red and green. All hand quilted at 5-6 spi. Also looks to be hand pieced too. The quilt has had little use, if any as it showns no wear and doesn't appear to have ever been washed. The plaid backing goes well with this quilt. For the binding the back was brought forward to the front and hand stitched down. There is a couple spots of loss of the overdye color, as shown. It is possible a Pennsylvania Mennonite quilt and is from the Lancaster County, Pennsylvania area.
