This is an American antique quilt made circa 1940’s to 1960’s. It is a traditional Grandma’s Garden quilt pattern. It is both hand sewn and hand quilted, which is a labor of love and a lost art. In our opinion the quilt is thin, soft, lightweight, with a little loft (puffiness). This jacket has a beautiful drape and is very flattering wear. In our hyper-critical opinion, there is something about the quality of the fabric used on the outside of the jacket that does not meet the quality and fabric on the inside of the jacket. The inside is buttery soft and a coordinating pink fabric! The ground fabric is ivory. This is not because of age or tanning but because the maker intended for the fabric to be ivory and not white. This jacket is completely reversible. There is a patch on this jacket that can be seen on the inside. We have added a photo in the listing for your convenience. here are also a few pin hole age marks that were so subtle and small our camera could not capture. 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.
