1900s quilt measuring 78 inches by 78 inches. Pattern is called Chimney Sweep.
There are 16 blocks, set on point, measuring 10.5 inches by 10.5
inches. Wonderful fabrics include double greens, double pinks, browns, and
purples. The quilt is hand and machine pieced and hand quilted at 10 spi with
an on point grid. There is a 1.5 inch cheddar border and a 5.5 inch green
border...the same print in different colorways. The green in the border is the
same fabric in the alternating squares and setting triangles in the quilt. The
back is a purple and brown print cotton fabric. The edges are finished by .25
inch double pink fabric binding applied by machine to the front and by hand to
the back.
