Mennonite Trip Around the World Quilt: Ca. 1880; Pa.
This might be the best version known of the traditional Trip Around the World quilt pattern. The dazzling rainbow colors are wonderful in the quilt and perfect in creating the Joseph's Coat border. Border consists of 7 stripes; the dark blues may not all show separately on your monitor. Excellent condition; probably never washed. Nicely quilted with initials "FG" embroidered in the center. Measures 72" x 74 ". Lancaster County, Pennsylvania origin; circa 1890.
