This is an antique American quilt made circa 1890s to 1910. It is a traditional Shoo Fly or Fence Rail pattern with additional sashing. It has been hand quilted and hand sewn. The quilt was backed with muslin fabric. For closures we used leather knotted round buttons. In our opinion, the jacket is lightweight, has medium loft (puffiness), and is bulkier than most of our quilts. The quilt is filled with very rare and antique chambray indigos from men’s shirt fabrics. Please note, there are a few zig zag mends and we have tried to include photographs. This is a size LARGE. This jacket is designed to fit oversized. Please read the measurements below to understand fit. If you have any questions please direct message us and we are happy to bore you with many more details.

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 special restoration quilt wash. We recommend only spot cleaning if necessary.
