This is an American Antique quilt made circa 1890's-1910. It is called the Spider Web Star Quilt pattern. It was made with fabric scraps from the maker's sewing stash. This piece is both hand quilted and hand sewn which is a labor of love and a lost art! We love the green floral backing fabric (inside of jacket). This fabric can best be appreciated when the cuffs are rolled or the jacket is worn inside out! There is a minor zigzag mend that can be seen on the inside of the jacket. We have included a photo at the end of the listing for your convenience. Due to the age of this quilt the tan ground fabric is weak in some places. The jacket is priced accordingly. In our opinion this pieces is super soft, thin, very light, light weight, and has a nice drape. If you have further questions, please direct message us and we are happy to send you a video.

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 old and are perfectly worn. We believe this is what makes them special and is part of their charm. All of our garments are pre-washed in a special restoration quilt wash. We recommend only spot cleaning if necessary.
