This is a wonderful early circa 1840’s hand pieced quilt top in the Feathered Stars quilt pattern with an applique vine border with berries .
The print is a beautiful turkey red fabric.
The condition of this handmade top is excellent overall with some minor age spotting.
I saw a small hole and looking hard did see some popping in some of the blocks, although I had to hold it up to light to see that.
It’s a great example of an early quilt top and the wonderful fabric and design. The fabric is really just superb and I believe the same fabric is used throughout so that saying the maker had access to this turkey red.
This is wonderful top for a collection or one that enjoys early textiles and an excellent study piece.
