You are bidding on this Antique Unusual
" WHIG ROSE "
Quilt
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN 1800'S QUILT THAT HAS MANY MANY HOURS OF TINY QULITING STITCHES , ONE THAT IS SO VERY OLD YET IS IN VERY VERY GOOD CONDITION , ONE WITH A VERY DIFFERENT PATTERN WITH THE RED CROSSES ,YOU MAY WANT TO TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THIS BEAUTY ..I HATE TO SELL IT .. IT IS BREATH TAKING ....
This quilt measures 60 x 83 " and has about 7-9 very even tiny stitches per 1 ". It is in very very good condition ,I found one small repair on one piece of the red flower fabric .. , and there is a little bit of wear on a few pieces of the red fabric and there is wear on the red fabric binding , there is a very light stain that looks like it could be washed out .. It is very faint going into a washed out very light tan .. nothing that detracts from this very very old quilt ...It is a beauty to behold ..AND ONE THAT SHOULD PROBABLY BRING BLUE AND BEST IF SHOW RIBBONS ..IT SHOULD PROBABLY BE IN A MUSEUM...
I LOVE IT !!!
IT IS HAND QUILTED WITH HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF QUILTING ... SOME OF THE RED CROSSES HAVE BEEN HANDSTITCHED SOME HAVE BEEN MACHINE STITCHED...
I have not seen this design before
It is a stunning quilt and I am sure that you will enjoy it...
IT IS SHOWN ON A QUEEN SIZED BED ..

An outstanding work of art from a era of Grandmothers and Great Grandmothers quilting , telling stories ,love , laughter and tears..
..If we could go back in time...quilting bees were when groups of women gathered together to speed the production of quilts...beyond the need to complete quilts, they were an important aspect of social life..Women exchanged gossip,political news , shared patterns , recipes, family stories , laughter and tears...The men would arrive for a meal which was followed by games and dancing...Much matchmaking took place...and it is said that when the last row of quilting was about to be done , the married women stepped back and the young misses took over ..The last stitch was to believed to be the next to be married ....
