Thousand Pyramids Quilt; Circa 1870; Penn.
The name Thousand Pyramids does not come close to the actual number of pieces in this quilt. There are more than 7000 triangles! Made of an extraordinary collection of 1870's fabrics, most of which are prints. They are laid out to very successfully create diagonal lines of color. Fabrics are in excellent condition. Measures 78" x 84". Each triangle is 1 1/4 inches per side. Pennsylvania origin; circa 1870.
