The Aunt Ethel

This is an Antique American quilt made circa 1950's-1970's. It is a traditional Snowball quilt pattern. This piece is both hand quilted and hand sewn, which is a labor of love and a lost art. The maker used a variety of florals and men's shirt scraps. To make this piece even better the quilt is backed (inside of jacket) with a pink and green floral fabric. This can best be appreciated when the cuffs are rolled or the jacket is worn upside, or inside out. This is a fashion multitasker. In our opinion the quilt is super soft, thin, light weight with little to no loft, and has a great drape. Please note: there is a small zig zag mend that blends into the jacket, and on the inside of the jacket there is a lightened spot. We have added photos of both of these blemishes at the end of the listing. 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.
