This is an Antique American quilt made circa 1930's-1940's. It is a traditional Lone Star quilt pattern. This piece has been beautifully hand quilted. We are in love with the pastel colorway the maker chose for the quilt top, but even more noteworthy was their choice in backing fabric(inside of jacket). It is a gingham fabric with red embroidery thread woven throughout, a truly specialty fabric! You will want to show this off by cuffing the sleeves or wearing this jacket inside out. This is a thin quilt, with little to no batting, in other words, it is a summer weight quilt. It was not made for warmth, but rather, aesthetics. In our opinion the quilt is soft, light weight, and has an excellent drape. This quilt is in excellent condition. This is a Lady Lancaster 10/10. Please note: there is a zig zag mend on the front bottom of the jacket, we have added a photo 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.
