This is an Antique American quilt made circa 1930's with historic Feed sack fabrics. It is a traditional Grandma's Fan quilt pattern. The ground color is not white, it was never white. The original ground color is what we call almond. This colorway is very unusual. The quilt is both expertly hand quilted at 8-10 stitches per inch and exquisitely hand sewn. There is very minor tanning throughout the quilt it is so subtle, we tried, but could not capture this in our photos. You truly have to look at the quilt in specific lighting to pick the tanning up. In our opinion the quilt is thin, with very little to no loft (puffiness), soft, light weight, and has a great drape. If you have further questions, please direct message us and we are happy to send you a video.   This is a Lady Lancaster 10/10.

  • The shawl collar allows for several different style options. This jacket is meant to be worn right side up or upside down.
  • This jacket has two clear snaps that disappear into the fabric at the bottom of the shawl collar to help the lapel drape nicely.
  • The Aunt Ethel has slouchy shoulders and a generous fit, keeping in line with its bohemian roots.
  • One Size Fits Most- Our model is 6’2, US size 10

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.
