Four Hearts Doll Quilt

I'm happy to be offering this sweet little doll quilt with four appliqued hearts in the center surrounded by red and brown fabrics set in rows and squares. It features everything that makes a doll quilt so irresistible! I love the way quilts bunch up around all the quilting stitches so that's what I aim for in my handmade doll quilts. All the visible stitching is done by hand with cotton thread. And there is lots of stitching on this one! Observe in the photos that the quilting stitches cause the surrounding fabric to crinkle up on itself. I love that about these endearing little quilts. The fabrics have been aged with an over-dye and several frayed pin pricks and worn spots. The backing fabric is brought to the front to form the binding which is a common finish from the 1800's. Please click through the photos to view close ups. Measures 15 x 12". Price includes travel fare. Your purchase will be tenderly packaged and ready for delivery as soon as payment is received. Thank you so much for stopping by!

SOLD thank you! Doll Quilt in Winter Blues

Blue triangles dance across this primitive quilt on a field of plain vintage feed sack. All the visible stitching is done by hand with cotton thread and the quilting covers the entire quilt, so lots of awesome primitive stitches to be enjoyed. The entire doll quilt features details that make it feel as if it was just uncovered from a long lost trunk in the attic. Features include: uneven hand stitching as though done by a young school girl rather than accomplished quilter, over dyed reproduction blue fabric and vintage feed sack, the striped shirting fabric on the back wraps around to the front to form the binding as typically done in the 1800's, frayed pin pricks, and an uneven set to the individual blocks. In other words, perfectly prim! Observe in the photos that the quilting stitches cause the surrounding fabric to crinkle up on itself. I love that about these endearing little quilts. Measures 10 x 12 inches. Price includes travel fare. This precious quilt will be wrapped and ready to be delivered as soon as payment is received. Thank you for stopping by!

Primitive Doll Quilt SOLD Thank you!

Primitive doll quilt in shades of reds and browns. Just like a young girl learning her sewing skills, the seams don’t match and the corners aren’t square but that’s just part of the charm of this aged and primly done piece. All visible stitching is done by hand. The fabric has been aged with pin pricks, worn out seams, and over dying for some appropriate age. The fabrics are a mix of old feedsack solid, repro homespun, and civil war era repro printed cottons. The center diamond patch features an appliqué stitched heart. In keeping with 1800’s quilting traditions, the backing fabric is folded to the front and stitched down to form the binding. The backing on this sweet quilt is an old printed feedsack with a design in red and blue slightly visible. 10x15”. Shipping is included in price. Please contact me with any questions.
