1880s SENSATIONAL PA ROLLING STONE ANTIQUE VINTAGE QUILT TOP – CRISPY AS-NEW – WOW!
This is visually stunning completely hand pieced 1880’s ROLLING STONE, JOSEPH’S COAT or JOHNNIE-ROUND-THE-CORNER Antique Quilt Top that measures a large 84” x 84”.
The top was purchased during 2000 from Baltimore-Pennsylvania: USA.
There are 36 x Rolling Stone blocks each measuring 9.75” x 9.75”….these have been separated by 3.5” wide sashing in a lovely Lancaster blue shirting fabric…..the top has then been finished with an outer sawtooth border measuring 3.5” wide.
There are some lovely fabrics of this era & colours being typical of the Philadelphia area…..cinnamon or double pinks, Lancaster blues, madder browns, mint & double greens, rich reds, tans & chocolates.
This top is in near immaculate condition…..it has never been used nor appears to have even been handled very much!
The fabrics still have all the sizing in situ…..they are very crisp & colours bright, there’s no fading evident at all & the stitching is still very tight & strong….. this would suit the new quilt top buyer!
There are a three minor small stains which should be very easily removed with a soak…..with just one block whereby the striped tan fabric has perished…….there are no odours.
With very little effort this could be finished into a stunning quilt.
