    Description

    I found this crazy quilt at a local auction. Measures approximately 86 x 92 inches, so would work well on a full sized bed. The first photo was taken on a queen bed to show the size. The top was sewed together and then hand stitched over using a combination of outline stitch and straight stitch around each patch.  If you have ever attempted to make a quilt like this is is extremely difficult to keep it square/rectangle.  The tiny pieces easily number the larger pieces, all pieces have the hand stitching around them. At some point the bottom/underside was added, which looks like a bed sheet in BRIGHT 70's yellow flowers.  The top and bottom are held together with a hand stitched triangle pieces around the border and white cotton yarn knotted throughout the blanket to hold it's shape.  The quilt does not appear to have any batting between the top and bottom, which makes it a little lighter in weight too. Weighs just 5.5lbs.  There are some small stains I have found, but not overall noticeable or deter from the blanket. Stains may be removable with cleaning, I have not tried. This would be a great addition to a country themed home, in a bedroom or just folded in the corner to use in any other room. Great minimal ware.
