This is an American, antique quilt made circa 1940's-1950's. Possibly even earlier. It is the traditional True Lovers Knot quilt pattern. However, it should also be considered a scrappy quilt. There are many fabrics in this piece from the turn of the century including men's shirt scraps, indigos, and homespun ginghams. The quilt is hand sewn and is hand quilted however appears to be quilted by a novice as the stitches are not dense or masterful. In our opinion the quilt is thin and light weight but on the dense side. It feels a little heavier comparatively speaking than most of our quilts. Even though by quilt standards this is not heavy by any means.
- This is a very light weight, very thin quilt.
- The shawl collar allows for several different style options. This jacket is meant to be worn right side up or upside down.
- This jacket has two clear snaps that disappear into the fabric at the bottom of the shawl collar to help the lapel drape nicely.
- The Aunt Ethel has slouchy shoulders and a generous fit, keeping in line with its bohemian roots.
- One Size Fits Most

Please note that all of our jackets are made from antique quilts and the fabric reflects this. Our fabrics are sometimes older than 100 years and we believe that makes them perfectly imperfect. This is what makes them a one-of-a-kind piece of art. All of our garments are pre-washed in a special restoration quilt wash. We recommend spot cleaning if necessary.
