This is an Antique American quilt made circa 1920's-1930's. It is a traditional Trip Around The World quilt pattern. This piece has been beautifully hand quilted and hand sewn, which is a labor of love and a lost art. The quilt contains turn of the century fabrics, home spun ginghams, and men's shirt scraps. The maker gave us a sweet gift by backing this quilt (inside of jacket) with an incredible patterned novelty fabric. It depicts stars, hearts and leafy branches. This fabric can best be appreciated when the cuffs are rolled or the jacket is worn inside out. In our opinion, this piece is super soft, thin, light weight with little to no batting(loft), and has an excellent drape. It is very comfy to wear! PLEASE NOTE: there is a small spot of sun fading in the one green square on the back of the jacket. This does not compromise the fabric. We have included a photo at the end of the listing showing off this mark. Overall, this quilt is in excellent condition. 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 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.
