The quilt measures 79" by 72" across and weighs only 3 1/4 lbs: it is a thin piece. The bed is a queen, 80" by 60".
The indigo blue and regular blue fabrics used by the makers were made in the US during the last decades of the 19th century until one or two decades after turn of the 20th. These were popular among quilters before feed sacks came into the scene, we have learned.
The piecing and quilting were done by hand.
This quilt looks much better in person, in our opini...on, than in our photos: we worked with some challenging light conditions and neither the blues nor the off-white of the quilt came out as nice as they are when you look at them with your own eyes.
We combine shipping.
