This fabulous quilt will awake ones visual senses everytime you look at it. It is very drawing and appealing. A very
southern quilt. Some of the pattern names this quilt might be called include Richmond Beauty, Trip Around the Mountain
and also Georgia Beauty, as suggested by a very lovely customer, Gaye Ingram who has much appreciation for this quilt
and its background, as an historian of southern quilts. The fabrics and pattern make this quilt so outstanding. Look at
all those wonderful points and diamonds in the pattern. The quilting is all done by hand and the separate binding is
also put on by hand . The quilt is hand pieced too. The condition is excellent with a few insignificant pops in the
madder fabric in a couple places only and some age related spots, as shown. Unwashed and really unused other for
display. Has been in my collection for several years and prior to that another collection.

What a great 4 block Eagle quilt that is in mint condition. It is unused and has never been washed and doesn't need it
either. This quilt still shows the quilting lines marked with pencil. The 4 eagles and center medallion are appliqued
and the border is pieced. The binding is done by turning the front to the back and was hand stitched down. Fabrics are
all solids. Dating of this quilt is a conservative 1940's, as it was suggested that it may be more from the 1920's.
The solids make it more difficult to date. This is a strong quilt with vivid colors of red, green and cheddar on a
muslin ground and with Pennsylvania origin. I was told this was made by Verna Brittman or Brietman from Lancaster
County Pennsylvania. It is all hand quilted at 7 spi and also the applique is done by hand. An excellent collector
quilt.

Minature Rainbow Hexagonal Quilt 3/4 INCH (q-275) Circa 1920's-30's, size 78x102. The condition of this fabulous quilt
is excellent, looks unused. The small hand pieced and hand quilted pieces that make up this awesome quilt just make me
want to know the person that made this quilt. It came from an estate in Wentworth, Mo. and with some research, found it
was made by Pearl Davidson. There are approx 12,320 pieces in the quilt. All hand quilted at 9 spi. The little hexagons
are only 3/4 inch and the side of each hexagon is less than an 1/2 inch. The separate tiny binding is hand whipped on.
A real treasure and a special quilt. When hanging the center is not exactly flat. It is such a treat for the eyes with
the use of solid cottons, making a field of hexagons. Lots of visual appeal. Missouri estate.
