This is a great, very ambitious antique patchwork quilt that is heavily padded and could probably be termed a "featherbed"(early name for heavy comforter type quilts). It is 70" x 80" and features 25 squares on the front side, each of different quilting patterns and 2 squares in the center with female figures. One is of a Sunbonnet Baby and the other is a hand embroidered Flapper type woman with a bonnet. The reverse side also is made up of quilted squares and as stated earlier, it is heavily padded and hand tied. It is entirely hand-stitched except the Flapper woman who has some machine stitching. Two 2 1/2" squares of pink silk on the front side have suffered some "melting", and there is some minor soiling, otherwise it is in very good condition.
