| Striking Tumbling Blocks quilt comforter that is of extremely heavy weight but finely made. Beautiful late 19th century wool challis fabrics. The weight is not due to the use of thick materials for the pattern but rather, whatever was used for the batting. Cut wool provides unusual decorative edging. Printed cotton backing makes this reversible to another quilt with a totally different look. Reverse has small black leather circles that are the backing of the ties on the front. Excellent condition. Measures 67" x 74". Pennsylvania origin; circa 1870. | |||||||||||
